Datalastic Vessel Tracking & Maritime Intelligence

Maritime company profile

intel_companies

Look up a maritime company profile — owners, operators, managers and charterers — returning its full and short name, company type, registration country, operating status, contact details, and parent company. Search by the company's own IMO number (company_imo) or by name. This is a company directory, so company_imo refers to the company (not a vessel); to find the companies behind a specific ship use intel_ownership. Part of the Maritime Reports add-on.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

No annotations provided. Description implies read-only lookup and describes returned fields, but does not explicitly state no side effects or authentication requirements. Still, behavioral context is sufficient for a directory tool.

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?

Two concise sentences with no redundancy. Information is front-loaded and 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?

With output schema present, description sufficiently covers purpose, usage, parameters, and distinctions from siblings. No missing details for effective tool selection and invocation.

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 100%, baseline 3. Description adds value by explaining company_imo is not a vessel IMO and must be exactly 7 digits, and clarifies updated_from filters by update date, going beyond schema descriptions.

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?

Clear verb 'look up' and resource 'maritime company profile'. Explicitly distinguishes from sibling intel_ownership by stating it searches by company IMO or name, while intel_ownership finds companies behind a ship.

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?

Provides explicit search methods (IMO or name) and includes a clear when-not statement: 'to find the companies behind a specific ship use intel_ownership', offering an alternative tool.

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

A4.2/5.0
Disambiguation5/5

Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: vessel tracking (get_vessel, get_vessel_pro, get_vessel_history, get_vessel_info, estimated_vessel_position), registry search (find_vessels, find_ports), port details (get_port), weather (get_weather), sea route (sea_route), async reports (report_*), and intelligence modules (intel_*). Even similar tools like find_vessels vs get_vessel are well-differentiated by their descriptions.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent lowercase underscore pattern with a verb_noun structure (e.g., get_vessel, find_ports, sea_route). The intel_* tools use a uniform prefix for intelligence operations, maintaining predictability across the set.

Tool Count3/5

With 25 tools, this server is at the upper boundary of the borderline range. While the tools are well-organized and necessary for the comprehensive maritime intelligence domain, the count feels slightly heavy compared to an ideal 3-15 tool scope.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface is remarkably complete: it covers vessel tracking (live, historic, estimated), registry search, port details, weather, sea route calculation, async report management, and a full suite of intelligence reports (casualties, inspections, ownership, etc.). There are no obvious gaps for maritime vessel tracking and intelligence tasks.
