Entity Profile

Read-onlyIdempotent

"Tell me about X" / "research Acme" / "brief me on Tesla" / "what does Apple do" / "company profile for Microsoft" / "give me the rundown on NVDA" / "everything you know about $TICKER" — full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view. Fans out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, USPTO patents, federal contracts (USAspending), FDA-licensed biologics (Purple Book), H-1B hiring (DOL LCA), news and GLEIF, and returns: cik + company_name (+ resolved_from/resolved_to when value was a name); recent_filings (up to 5 with pipeworx://edgar/company/{cik}/filings/{accession} URIs); fundamentals (LATEST 10-K Revenues + NetIncomeLoss + Cash, sorted period_end DESC); patents (USPTO PatentsView API sunset May 2025 — soft-fails until reactivated); federal_contracts (USAspending awards where the company is the recipient); fda_products (FDA-licensed biologics — vaccines, cell/gene therapies — from the Purple Book; a company with only small-molecule/generic drugs will show none here, that is expected, not a failure); hiring (H-1B sponsorship volume + salary range from DOL LCA filings); recent news mentions via GDELT→GNews fallback; LEI via GLEIF. sources_used / sources_failed say which of these actually returned data for THIS company — an empty section is a real "no data", not a bug. Pass a ticker ("AAPL"), zero-padded CIK ("0000320193"), OR a company name ("Moderna") — names now resolve via SEC EDGAR's company-name match; a private company (no CIK/ticker) returns resolved:false with an explicit notes line, not a bare failure. type accepts "company" or "ticker" interchangeably — both take the same value shapes above.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

The description goes far beyond annotations by detailing fan-out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, patents, federal contracts, FDA, H-1B, news, and GLEIF; soft-failure on USPTO sunset; empty sections being 'real no data'; and resolved:false for private companies. All traits are consistent with readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. No contradiction.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is long but earns its length by covering a complex multi-source tool. It front-loads user-intent examples, states the main rule, then systematically lists sources, return fields, and edge cases. Though dense, the structure is logical and avoids fluff; small formatting improvements (e.g., bullets) could improve scannability.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema, the description fully inventories expected return fields (cik, company_name, recent_filings, fundamentals, patents, federal_contracts, fda_products, hiring, news, LEI) and explains failure behavior (soft-fails, empty sections, resolved:false). Every aspect needed for correct invocation—input, output, sources, and edge cases—is covered.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100% already, and the description adds meaningful examples and semantics: it explains that `type` accepts 'company' or 'ticker' interchangeably and that `value` can be a ticker, zero-padded CIK, or company name, with name resolution via SEC EDGAR. This enriches the schema rather than merely repeating it.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states the specific action: 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call.' It clearly differentiates itself from chaining single-pack lookups and from siblings like compare_entities or resolve_entity by emphasizing holistic, cross-source profiling. The user-phrase examples ('Tell me about X', 'brief me on Tesla') anchor the intended use case unambiguously.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicit usage guidance is embedded: 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view.' It also defines accepted input shapes (ticker, CIK, name), how private companies are handled, and how failures manifest. This gives the agent clear criteria for choosing this tool over alternatives.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have heavily overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are currently identical, ask_pipeworx_grounded and validate_claim both perform claim verification, and polymarket_edges and polymarket_arbitrage both surface trading opportunities. While descriptions are detailed, the boundaries are fuzzy and agents could easily select the wrong tool.

Naming Consistency3/5

Naming mixes verb-first (search, subscribe, recall, validate_claim) with noun-first (dataset, facets, recent, entity_profile) conventions, and some names are just adjectives or nouns. Consistent prefixed groups exist (polymarket_*, ask_pipeworx_*), but the overall style is inconsistent and the server name 'Pangaea' doesn't align with the dominant 'pipeworx' prefix.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is excessive for a coherent set, especially given the server bundles unrelated domains (earth science, general data research, prediction markets, memory, utilities). Several tools are redundant (e.g., ask_pipeworx_beta duplicates ask_pipeworx), and many are niche (ai_visibility_check, generate_llms_txt, scan_dependency) that don't fit the apparent primary purpose.

Completeness3/5

The PANGAEA dataset surface covers search, retrieval by ID/DOI, recent, and facets, but lacks export or citation tools. The Pipeworx research tools are broad, but prediction market access has no simple market-price query (only analysis-oriented tools), and there are notable gaps in lifecycle coverage for some subdomains.
