Read-onlyIdempotent

"What's new with X" / "latest on Y" / "what happened to Z this week / month / quarter" / "updates on Acme" / "news on Tesla recently" / "what's happening with Apple" — change feed for a company in the last N days/weeks/months in ONE parallel call. Fans out to SEC EDGAR (filings since since), GDELT→GNews fallback (news mentions in window — GDELT preferred, GNews when rate-limited or 5xx), USPTO (patents granted; PatentsView API sunset May 2025 so this soft-fails until reactivated). since accepts ISO date ("2026-04-01") or relative shorthand ("7d", "30d", "3m", "1y"). Returns structured changes[] grouped by source + total_changes count + pipeworx:// citation URIs. Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile (filings + fundamentals + LEI + patents) regardless of window.

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the annotations (read-only, idempotent), the description discloses fallback behavior (GDELT preferred, GNews on rate-limit), USPTO's soft-fail due to API sunset, and that it returns structured changes with citations. This adds meaningful operational context.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is dense but every sentence provides actionable detail—examples, fallback chains, API sunset caveat, return shape, and alternative tool. It's appropriately structured with the purpose front-loaded in the opening phrase.

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?

For a complex multi-source tool with no output schema, the description covers the return format (changes[], total_changes, pipeworx:// URIs), the behavior of each source, and pointers to alternatives, making it self-sufficient.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Although the input schema has 100% coverage, the description enriches parameter meaning by explaining that `since` accepts ISO dates or relative shorthand with examples, suggests typical usage ('30d' or '1m'), and clarifies `value` can be a ticker or zero-padded CIK.

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 clearly defines the tool as a change feed for a company over a time window, with specific verbs like 'Fans out' and lists the data sources. It distinguishes itself from the sibling entity_profile by contrasting dynamic changes vs static profile.

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?

Explicitly gives use-case examples ('What's new with X') and states an alternative: 'Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile...' It also clarifies when the fallback happens (GDELT rate-limited or 5xx).

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

B3/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The tool set mixes multiple domains (Postmark email, Pipeworx data queries, Polymarket betting, memory utilities) with several overlapping tools. ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are essentially identical, send/send_batch and bounces/bounce are similar, and multiple polymarket analysis tools (polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker) could be confused. Despite detailed descriptions, the sheer number of query and analysis tools increases the chance of misselection.

Naming Consistency3/5

All tool names use lowercase_with_underscores, so the casing is consistent. However, there is no uniform verb_noun pattern: some start with verbs (ask, send, bounce, resolve, validate), while others are noun phrases (server, bounces, recent_alerts, entity_profile). This mixed semantic structure makes it less predictable, but the names are still readable.

Tool Count2/5

41 tools is far above the typical well-scoped range of 3-15. The server combines multiple unrelated domains—email, data lookup, prediction markets, memory, and subscriptions—resulting in a heavyweight and unfocused surface. Most of the tools would be better split into separate, purpose-specific servers.

Completeness2/5

For a server named Postmark, the email side is incomplete: there is no update server configuration, message stream management, or inbound email handling. The Pipeworx data tools provide good read coverage but lack write/management operations for entities. The inclusion of unrelated tools makes the surface feel arbitrary rather than complete for any single domain.
