"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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description details the multi-source fan-out behavior, fallback mechanisms (GDELT→GNews), and edge cases (USPTO soft-fail). Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint, and the description complements these without contradiction.

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 informative and structured, starting with purpose and examples. While it is somewhat long, every sentence adds necessary detail. It is well-organized with clear sections.

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 tool's complexity (3 params, multi-source fetch, no output schema), the description sufficiently explains return format (changes grouped by source, total_changes, citation URIs) and limitations. It could mention rate limits or pagination, but overall complete.

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 parameter descriptions. The description adds value beyond the schema by providing examples for 'since' shorthand (e.g., '30d', '1y') and clarifying that 'value' accepts ticker or CIK. It also notes 'type' is limited to 'company'.

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 provides a change feed for a company within a time window, using specific verbs like 'what's new' and 'latest on'. It distinguishes itself from the sibling 'entity_profile' tool by stating when to use each.

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 explicitly tells when to use this tool (recent changes) and when not to (use 'entity_profile' for static profile regardless of window). It also provides example queries that clarify usage scenarios.

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

Several tool families overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta (currently identical), ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all route to the same underlying catalog, while bet_research, polymarket_edges, and polymarket_arbitrage all surface prediction-market opportunities. The detailed descriptions mitigate some confusion, but an agent must read carefully to avoid selecting the wrong member of these overlapping groups.

Naming Consistency3/5

The set is consistently snake_case and many tools follow verb_noun conventions like list_datasets, get_series, find_series, and validate_claim. However, a large minority are noun-led names such as entity_profile, deep_research, bet_research, pipeworx_feedback, and polymarket_arbitrage, so there is no single predictable naming pattern across the whole server.

Tool Count2/5

At 36 tools, this is well above the 25+ threshold for an over-heavy surface, and the set spans DBnomics data, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, npm auditing, llms.txt generation, and AI-visibility checks. Several near-duplicate meta-tools could be consolidated, and unrelated domains would be better split into separate servers.

Completeness4/5

Core workflows are well covered: DBnomics browse/fetch/search, company resolve/profile/compare/change, prediction-market discovery and fill-risk, and memory/subscription lifecycles are all represented. Minor gaps exist, such as no subscription-update operation and no direct single-dataset detail fetch without listing, but agents can work around them.
