competitive_deep_dive_async

Read-only

Async variant of competitive_deep_dive. Returns immediately (<200ms) with a job_id. The research runs in the background (p50≈25s, p95≈30s for depth=medium). Poll the result with competitive_deep_dive_result(job_id) after the eta_seconds hint. Use this instead of competitive_deep_dive when the agent cannot wait >15s for a response. Inputs: same as competitive_deep_dive — company (required), competitors (optional list, max 5), depth (easy/medium/hard, default medium). Async tool — register a webhook via webhooks_manage(register, url, [job.completed]) to receive callbacks instead of polling. Faster + lighter.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Discloses async behavior (returns immediately, background run time p50≈25s, p95≈30s), polling via job_id, and webhook registration. Annotations are consistent (readOnlyHint, not destructive), and description adds value beyond annotations.

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?

Well-structured: starts with purpose, then behavior, then input summary. Slightly verbose but all information is relevant and earned.

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?

Completely covers async behavior, return value (job_id), polling mechanism, and webhook alternative. With an output schema present, return values are clear. Sibling tool for result retrieval is mentioned.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline 3. Description reiterates parameter meanings with defaults, but adds no new information beyond the schema's existing 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?

The description clearly states the tool is an async variant of competitive_deep_dive, returning a job_id immediately. It specifies inputs and distinguishes from the sync version and the result polling tool.

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 says 'Use this instead of competitive_deep_dive when the agent cannot wait >15s for a response.' It also mentions webhook callback as an alternative to polling, providing clear usage context.

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

C2.5/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

With 271 tools, many have overlapping purposes (e.g., multiple competitor intel tools, multiple financial modelers, multiple ESG auditors). Detailed descriptions help slightly, but the sheer volume creates confusion. Agents would struggle to select the right tool among many similar options.

Naming Consistency1/5

Tool names are wildly inconsistent: mix of English and French, snake_case and short phrases, some very generic (process, run, execute equivalents). No discernible naming convention (e.g., abm_architect vs. boundary_control vs. bp_narratif). This makes it hard to predict tool names.

Tool Count1/5

271 tools is far beyond typical well-scoped servers (3-15). This indicates an unfocused, over-bloated tool surface. Even for a general business intelligence server, this number is excessive and violates the principle of each tool earning its place.

Completeness2/5

Despite the large count, coverage feels scattered. Some domains (e.g., content, competitive intel) have many tools, while others (e.g., supply chain, HR) have gaps. The set lacks a coherent scope; it seems like a dump of many separate tool collections rather than a complete, curated surface.
