Recent Changes

recent_changes
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.

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations indicate read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds substantial context: it fans out to three sources, includes fallback logic for GDELT→GNews, soft-fail for USPTO, and explains the return structure (changes grouped by source, total_changes, citation URIs). No contradiction with annotations.

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 concise, front-loaded with concrete example queries, and every sentence contributes meaning. It efficiently covers multi-source behavior, parameter format, fallback, and output summary without excess.

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 (multi-source, fallback, soft-fail, no output schema), the description is complete. It explains return structure (changes grouped, total_changes, citation URIs), source behavior, and the date format. The agent has enough context to select and invoke the tool correctly.

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% with good parameter descriptions. The description adds value by clarifying acceptable inputs (e.g., 'type' only 'company', 'value' examples like 'AAPL' or '0000320193') and recommending '30d' or '1m' for typical monitoring. This goes beyond the schema's basic types.

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's purpose: returns a change feed for a company from multiple sources (SEC EDGAR, GDELT/GNews, USPTO) in a single call. It explicitly distinguishes from the sibling tool 'entity_profile', which provides a static profile. The verb 'recent_changes' combined with the examples exactly captures the tool's scope.

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: for queries like 'what's new' or 'latest updates'. It directly advises using 'entity_profile' instead for static profiles. The fallback logic (GDELT preferred, GNews on rate-limit/5xx) is also explained, helping the agent decide invocation.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools intentionally overlap: ask_pipeworx_beta is explicitly identical to ask_pipeworx, and ask_pipeworx/ask_pipeworx_grounded/deep_research plus discover_tools/suggest_questions sit close together. The long descriptions clarify differences, but an agent still has to choose between near-equivalent entry points.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are readable snake_case, but there is no single consistent convention: verb-led names like list_tags and resolve_entity sit alongside noun-led names like random_cat, entity_profile, and polymarket_arbitrage. Domain prefixes like polymarket_ and pipeworx_ help, but the mixed grammar makes the surface less predictable.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is far beyond what a cat-image server needs; only 3 tools relate to Cataas, while the rest form a sprawling Pipeworx data, prediction-market, memory, and subscription suite. The count is in the 'too many' range and most tools are outside the server's apparent stated domain.

Completeness3/5

The cat-image core covers random cats, tag-filtered cats, and tag listing, but omits other Cataas-style operations like fetching by cat ID or creating cat images with text/effects. The embedded Pipeworx side is broad, but it does not fill the gaps in the server's named cat API purpose.
