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?

This is exceptionally transparent. It discloses fan-out across multiple sources, USPTO soft-fail due to API sunset, expected-empty fda_products for small-molecule companies, private-company resolved:false behavior, and the meaning of sources_used/sources_failed. These details go far beyond the read-only/idempotent annotations and tell the agent what actually happens during execution.

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 long but dense and purposeful, with every component covering either input shapes, output structure, or failure semantics. It front-loads example user intents and the key policy of preferring this tool over chained lookups, then systematically walks through return fields. For a tool this broad, the length is justified and there is no filler.

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 present, the description carries the full burden of explaining return values, and it does so thoroughly: it enumerates each returned field, explains source fallbacks, describes edge cases like missing FDA products, and clarifies resolved:false behavior. An agent has enough context to invoke the tool correctly and interpret its results.

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?

Even though schema coverage is 100%, the description adds meaningful semantics: it explains that type values are interchangeable, value can be a ticker, CIK, or company name, names resolve via SEC EDGAR, CIK should be zero-padded, and private companies return a structured non-failure response. This materially improves parameter understanding beyond the schema alone.

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 defines the tool with a specific verb and scope: it produces a 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call.' It includes concrete example user phrasings and explicitly contrasts itself with 'chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups,' so an agent can clearly distinguish its purpose from narrower lookup tools.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description gives an explicit trigger condition: 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view.' It tells the agent when to use the tool and names the main alternative category, but it does not explicitly address sibling tools such as compare_entities, deep_research, or resolve_entity, leaving some potential ambiguity across the full sibling set.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all serve as entry points for data questions, and ask_pipeworx_beta currently behaves identically to ask_pipeworx. Entity-focused tools (entity_profile, compare_entities, recent_changes, ai_visibility_check, scan_competitor_ai_presence) also blur together even with lengthy descriptions.

Naming Consistency4/5

All tools use lowercase snake_case, which is consistent and readable. There is some variation between verb-first names (discover_tools, resolve_entity) and noun-first names (entity_profile, polymarket_arbitrage), plus the ask_pipeworx variant family, but the pattern is predictable overall.

Tool Count2/5

35 tools is heavy, and the scope sprawls far beyond the 'Rba' server name: only 4 tools relate to the Reserve Bank of Australia, while the rest cover a universal data router, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, AI visibility, npm scanning, and more. Several meta-tools (ask_pipeworx, deep_research, discover_tools, suggest_questions) duplicate the discovery/routing role, making the count feel inflated.

Completeness3/5

For the RBA-specific subdomain, coverage is solid: directory lookup, series fetching, cash rate, and exchange rates. For the broader data-research domain most tools imply, coverage is quite comprehensive (routing, grounded answers, entity resolution, fact-checking, monitoring, memory), but the server's stated identity is unclear, and the beta duplicate tool adds noise rather than filling a real gap.
