Scan Competitor AI Presence

scan_competitor_ai_presence
Read-onlyIdempotent

Compare AI visibility across multiple entities side-by-side. Probes each entity (your brand + N competitors) with ai_visibility_check, ranks by score, surfaces which is most/least recognized. Useful for competitive AI-marketing audits: "does Claude know about us as well as our competitors?". Returns ranked list with score, confidence, signal density per entity.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
modelsNoWhich models to probe. Supported: "workers-ai" (free default), "anthropic" (requires _apiKey). Omit for just workers-ai.
_apiKeyNoOptional Anthropic API key — only if "anthropic" is in models. Passed to api.anthropic.com per probe.
contextNoOptional shared context applied to every probe (e.g. "B2B SaaS", "Boston restaurant"). Disambiguates common names.
entitiesYesArray of 2-8 entities to compare (brand/business/product names). First entry treated as the "subject" for narrative; rest are competitors.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations declare readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive. Description adds process detail (probes with ai_visibility_check, ranks, outputs score/confidence/signal density). No contradiction.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded with purpose, no fluff. Each sentence adds distinct value.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers required and optional parameters, constraints (2-8 entities), and return structure (ranked list with metrics). No output schema, but description provides sufficient return info.

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%, description adds semantic value: explains 'entities' sequence (first as subject), model selection, context disambiguation, and API key usage.

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?

Describes specific verb 'Compare' and resource 'AI visibility across multiple entities', clearly distinguishing from sibling ai_visibility_check (single entity).

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?

Provides explicit use case ('competitive AI-marketing audits') and example question, implying when to use. Does not explicitly state when not to use but differentiation from sibling is clear.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools occupy the same functional space: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_ipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all answer questions; disover_tools, suggest_questions, and pipeworx_trending all serve discovery; and five polymarket_* tools plus bet_research overlap heavily on prediction-market opportunity detection. The descriptions are detailed, but the boundaries are subtle enough that an agent can easily pick the wrong tool.

Naming Consistency4/5

The set is uniformly lowercase snake_case and uses recognizable prefixes such as ask_pipeworx, polymarket_, pipeworx_, and get_, which makes the naming fairly predictable. It is not a strict verb_noun convention — some names are noun phrases like entity_profile or ai_visility_check — but the overall style is consistent.

Tool Count2/5

With 36 tools, the surface is far heavier than the 'Congress' name suggests: only five tools are actually about congressional data, while the rest are general research, memory, subscription, and meta utilities. Many of these overlap, so the count feels bloated rather than well-scoped.

Completeness3/5

For Congress-specific work, the core needs are covered: search bills, get bill details, list members, and retrieve recent votes. However, deeper legislative operations like member voting records, committee actions, and amendments are missing, and the surrounding Pipeworx tools do nothing to close that gap. As a general data-research platform it is broad, but its actual 'Congress' identity feels incompletely realized.
