Compare Entities

compare_entities
Read-onlyIdempotent

"Compare X and Y" / "X vs Y" / "X versus Y" / "which is bigger / better / larger / more profitable" / "rank these companies" / "head to head" — side-by-side comparison of 2–5 companies or drugs in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities. type="company" pulls LATEST 10-K revenue + net income + cash + long-term debt from SEC EDGAR/XBRL (off-calendar fiscal years handled correctly — AAPL Sep, NVDA Jan, etc.). type="drug" pulls FAERS adverse-event counts, FDA approval counts, active trial counts. Results sorted by primary metric so "largest" / "most" / "biggest" reads off the top of the response. Returns paired data + pipeworx:// citation URIs per entity. Replaces 8–15 sequential lookups.

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent behavior. Description adds specifics: sorting by primary metric, handling off-calendar fiscal years, returning paired data and citation URIs. This adds value beyond annotations but could detail pagination or limits.

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?

The description is detailed and front-loaded with key trigger phrases. While dense, every sentence contributes value. Slightly long but acceptable for the complexity.

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?

Given the tool's complexity, no output schema, and annotations present, the description fully explains behavior, return format, and constraints, enabling correct invocation. It covers all necessary contextual aspects.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. The description enriches parameter meaning: explains 'company' pulls SEC data with fiscal year handling, 'drug' pulls regulatory data, and max 5 items per array.

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 identifies the tool's purpose: side-by-side comparison of 2-5 companies or drugs. It uses trigger phrases like 'compare X and Y' and specifies what each entity type retrieves, distinguishing it from single-entity tools.

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 states 'ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities,' providing clear when-to-use guidance. It also notes it replaces 8-15 sequential lookups, reinforcing efficiency.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx_beta is explicitly identical to ask_pipeworx right now, and ask_pipeworx_grounded shares the same router. The universal ask_pipeworx router also subsumes many domain-specific tools (attom_*, entity_profile, etc.), making it unclear when to use the specialist tools versus the catch-all.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case and mostly descriptive, but conventions vary: ask_* and attom_* prefixes coexist with bare verbs (remember, forget, subscribe), noun phrases (entity_profile, polymarket_edges), and adjective-prefixed names (recent_alerts, recent_changes). The pattern is readable but not uniform.

Tool Count2/5

39 tools is well over the 25+ threshold for a heavy surface, especially for a server named 'Attom' that also includes memory, subscriptions, feedback, npm scanning, and AI-visibility tools beyond real estate. Many tools could be consolidated (e.g., the three ask_pipeworx variants, the six polymarket tools).

Completeness4/5

The real estate domain is well covered (search, detail, AVM, rental AVM, sales history, trends, assessment, schools), and the broader data platform includes discovery, grounded answers, entity profiles, comparisons, claim validation, subscriptions, and memory. Minor gaps exist only around edge features like OAuth-gated subscription persistence.
