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.

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds that it fans out to multiple sources (SEC EDGAR, GDELT→GNews, USPTO), explains fallback, and mentions return format with citation URIs.

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?

Single paragraph, front-loaded with example queries, no wasted words. Every sentence adds value including usage guidance, data sources, and return structure.

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 no output schema, the description adequately describes return format (structured changes[] with total_changes and citation URIs). It also covers edge cases like USPTO soft-fail and GDELT→GNews fallback.

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 covers all parameters. The description adds context: 'since' with example formats and recommendation, 'value' with ticker or CIK, 'type' reaffirms only 'company' supported.

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 returns a change feed for a company over a recent time window, using example queries. It distinguishes itself from the sibling tool 'entity_profile' by noting that tool is for static profiles.

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 says when to use (for 'what's new' queries) and when not to ('Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile'). Also describes fallback behavior and limitations (USPTO soft-fail).

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Many tools overlap in purpose, such as the multiple Polymarket tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, etc.) and the several query tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research). Memory tools (remember, recall, forget) also add to the confusion.

Naming Consistency3/5

Tool names are mostly snake_case but vary in pattern: some are verb_noun (add_duration, compare_entities), others are noun_noun (entity_profile, date_diff) or single verbs (forget). This mix reduces predictability but is not chaotic.

Tool Count2/5

The server name 'Datecalc' implies a narrow focus, yet 33 tools exist covering far more than date calculations. The count is too high for the implied purpose, and many tools are unrelated to the server's apparent domain.

Completeness2/5

For the implied date calculation domain, only three tools exist (add_duration, date_diff, date_info), leaving obvious gaps. For the actual broad data access domain, coverage is better but still lacks a cohesive structure.
