Index Additions and Deletions

GetIndexChanges
Read-only

Get the companies that have joined or left a major US stock index, newest first. Changes are derived by comparing consecutive constituent lists from the funds that track the index, so each one is dated to the window between two reports rather than to an announcement: a daily holdings file dates a change to a day, a quarterly filing only to a quarter. Several funds track the same index and each records a change separately, so records for the same company and direction over overlapping windows are collapsed into the single event a reader should see, keeping the narrowest window. This is observed membership, not an announcement feed, so a change appears once a tracking fund has actually reported it.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark the operation as read-only and non-destructive, and the description adds substantial behavioral transparency beyond that: it explains window-based dating, collapse of duplicate records across funds, and the reporting lag. These are exactly the non-obvious traits an agent needs to interpret results correctly.

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 first sentence is a clear front-loaded purpose statement, and every subsequent sentence adds necessary nuance about derivation, timing, deduplication, and reporting behavior. It is longer than the minimal case, but the complexity of the tool justifies each sentence with 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?

For a two-parameter read-only list tool with no nested objects and no output schema, the description is unusually complete. It covers what the tool returns conceptually, the meaning of the returned events, the data source derivation, and key caveats such as window granularity and deduplication.

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 description coverage is 100%, so both "index" and "maxResults" are already documented with examples and defaults. The description adds context about index change events but does not need to repeat parameter mechanics; the baseline of 3 is appropriate because the schema carries the parameter burden.

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 opens with a specific verb and resource: "Get the companies that have joined or left a major US stock index, newest first." It clearly identifies this as a change-history tool for index constituents and distinguishes it from related index tools by emphasizing observed membership rather than an announcement feed.

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 clear context for when the data is available: changes appear only after a tracking fund has reported them, and overlapping fund reports are collapsed. It also explicitly frames the tool as "observed membership, not an announcement feed," which is a useful exclusion, though it does not name alternative tools such as GetIndexComposition or GetIndexForecast.

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

B3.4/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes, with detailed descriptions that cross-reference related alternatives. A few near-duplicate names could cause misselection, notably SearchDocument versus SearchDocuments and GetCftcPositioning versus GetLatestCftcPositioning.

Naming Consistency5/5

Tool names consistently follow a VerbNoun camelCase pattern: Get for retrievals, Search for discovery, List/Read for document access, and Add/Close/Remove/Update/Watch/Create/Delete for portfolio mutations. Despite the large count, there is no mixing of naming conventions or unpredictable verb styles.

Tool Count1/5

108 tools is an extreme surface area, far beyond the 3-15 well-scoped range and well past the 25+ threshold. Even for a broad financial data platform, this creates a heavy selection burden and substantial context overhead for agents.

Completeness4/5

The server covers an unusually wide domain: prices, fundamentals, SEC filings, options, insider activity, 13F holdings, short interest, macro data, funds, IPOs, and full portfolio lifecycle management. Notable gaps remain, such as a basic company profile/ticker-resolution tool, dividend history, and analyst estimates, so it is not a perfect 5.
