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.

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint. The description adds significant behavioral context: fan-out to multiple sources, fallback logic, soft-fail for USPTO, and the return format (changes grouped by source + counts + citation URIs). No contradictions.

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 front-loaded with concrete query examples, uses efficient sentences, and includes all necessary information without redundancy. Every sentence adds value.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description explains the return structure. Given the tool's complexity (multiple sources, fallback, soft-fail), the description covers all key aspects needed for correct invocation and interpretation.

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%, baseline 3. The description enriches parameter meaning by providing examples for 'since' (ISO date, relative shorthand, recommended default) and clarifying acceptable inputs for 'value' (ticker or CIK). This adds value beyond the schema.

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 recent window, listing multiple data sources and explicitly differentiating from sibling tool entity_profile. Example queries ('What's new with X', 'latest on Y') make the purpose unmistakable.

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?

The description provides explicit guidance on when to use this tool versus entity_profile, and explains fallback behavior between GDELT and GNews. It also includes practical advice like 'Use "30d" or "1m" for typical monitoring'.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most tools have distinct, well-scoped purposes, but several question-answering/research tools sit close together: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and validate_claim can all be selected for factual questions. The descriptions are detailed enough to reduce ambiguity, but ask_pipeworx_beta is currently identical to ask_pipeworx, and discovery helpers like discover_tools, suggest_questions, and pipeworx_trending also overlap somewhat.

Naming Consistency4/5

Names are uniformly snake_case and mostly follow a verb_noun pattern such as build_url, list_subscriptions, resolve_entity, and validate_claim. The polymarket_* and pipeworx_* prefixes form a readable convention, though a few names like pipeworx_feedback and polymarket_arbitrage are noun-phrases rather than verb-first actions.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is well past the 25+ threshold where even a broad platform starts to feel bloated. The set mixes data research, prediction-market tooling, URL utilities, memory, subscriptions, feedback, and npm scanning, which would be more coherently split across focused servers.

Completeness3/5

The core research workflows are thoroughly covered: routing, grounded answers, deep research, entity resolution, comparisons, claim validation, discovery, alerts, and memory all exist. However, the URL utility and dependency-scanning side domains feel tacked on and incomplete, and there is no dedicated tool to fetch an arbitrary pipeworx:// citation record even though such URIs are returned throughout.
