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.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond annotations (readOnly, idempotent), it discloses the fan-out architecture, GDELT→GNews fallback for rate limits/5xx, and USPTO soft-fail due to PatentsView sunset. This gives the agent realistic expectations about source reliability and failure modes.

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?

A single dense paragraph that front-loads the purpose with natural-language examples before diving into sources and output. Every clause provides useful data, though the sentence about PatentsView sunset adds complexity for a soft-fail edge case.

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?

Given the multi-source complexity and no output schema, the description covers source list, fallbacks, time-window formats, and return shape (changes[], total_changes, citation URIs). Minor gaps remain around edge cases like empty results or ambiguous entity resolution, but it is sufficient for selection and invocation.

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?

The schema already documents all three parameters thoroughly: type enum, value ticker/CIK, and since with examples and relative format. The description adds only minor usage guidance ('Use 30d or 1m for typical monitoring') without materially expanding on schema semantics.

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 natural-language triggers ('What's new with X') and clearly states the tool returns a change feed for a company, fanning out to SEC EDGAR, GDELT/GNews, and USPTO. It explicitly distinguishes itself from sibling entity_profile by naming when to use that alternative.

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?

Provides explicit usage context with example queries and states 'Use entity_profile instead' for static profiles regardless of window. It also notes the company-only scope and recommends typical monitoring windows ('30d' or '1m').

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes with clear descriptions, but some overlap exists (e.g., ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research all retrieve structured data with subtle differences). Competitor analytics (ai_visibility_check, scan_competitor_ai_presence) also share similar goals.

Naming Consistency3/5

Names follow loose patterns within subgroups (get_crypto_*, polymarket_*, ask_pipeworx*), but overall there is no single consistent convention. Verbs and noun orders vary (e.g., get_crypto_price vs. validate_claim vs. remember).

Tool Count3/5

35 tools is high; many exceed the core 'crypto' domain (company profiles, npm dependencies, memory management, subscriptions). While each tool seems justified, the count feels heavy for a single server, risking cognitive load.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers crypto basics (price, market, history), company data, prediction markets, and general data retrieval comprehensively. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct on-chain crypto data), but cross-domain coverage is strong.
