"Tell me about X" / "research Acme" / "brief me on Tesla" / "what does Apple do" / "company profile for Microsoft" / "give me the rundown on NVDA" / "everything you know about $TICKER" — full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view. Fans out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, USPTO patents, federal contracts (USAspending), FDA-licensed biologics (Purple Book), H-1B hiring (DOL LCA), news and GLEIF, and returns: cik + company_name (+ resolved_from/resolved_to when value was a name); recent_filings (up to 5 with pipeworx://edgar/company/{cik}/filings/{accession} URIs); fundamentals (LATEST 10-K Revenues + NetIncomeLoss + Cash, sorted period_end DESC); patents (USPTO PatentsView API sunset May 2025 — soft-fails until reactivated); federal_contracts (USAspending awards where the company is the recipient); fda_products (FDA-licensed biologics — vaccines, cell/gene therapies — from the Purple Book; a company with only small-molecule/generic drugs will show none here, that is expected, not a failure); hiring (H-1B sponsorship volume + salary range from DOL LCA filings); recent news mentions via GDELT→GNews fallback; LEI via GLEIF. sources_used / sources_failed say which of these actually returned data for THIS company — an empty section is a real "no data", not a bug. Pass a ticker ("AAPL"), zero-padded CIK ("0000320193"), OR a company name ("Moderna") — names now resolve via SEC EDGAR's company-name match; a private company (no CIK/ticker) returns resolved:false with an explicit notes line, not a bare failure. type accepts "company" or "ticker" interchangeably — both take the same value shapes above.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeYes"company" or "ticker" — both are accepted and behave identically; `value` can be a ticker, CIK, or company name either way. person/place coming soon.
valueYesTicker (e.g., "AAPL"), zero-padded CIK (e.g., "0000320193"), or company name (e.g., "Moderna") — names resolve via SEC EDGAR company-name match.

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Description details what data is returned (CIK, filings, fundamentals, patents, news, LEI) and mentions the USPTO API sunset and soft-fail behavior. Annotations already indicate read-only and idempotent, so the description adds valuable behavioral context beyond that.

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?

Description is detailed but efficient, using bullet-like structure and front-loading examples. Could be slightly more concise, but the information density is appropriate for a complex tool.

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?

With no output schema, the description fully explains the return fields (cik, filings, fundamentals, patents, news, LEI) and limitations (USPTO sunset, name handling). Completeness is high given the tool's complexity.

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 coverage is 100%, and description goes beyond by specifying that names are not accepted and that value can be ticker or zero-padded CIK, which is critical for correct 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?

Description clearly defines the tool's purpose: providing a holistic profile of US public companies from multiple sources. Example queries illustrate usage, and it distinguishes from sibling tools like resolve_entity by stating names are not supported.

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 states that this tool should be preferred over chaining individual lookups for holistic views. Provides clear guidance on when to use resolve_entity first if only a name is available, and notes that ticker or CIK are required.

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
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes with clear descriptions, but some overlap exists, e.g., ask_pipeworx vs ask_pipeworx_grounded, and several entity/company tools that could be confused. Overall, well-described and mostly disambiguated.

Naming Consistency5/5

Tool names follow consistent patterns: snake_case, with clear prefixes for each group (e.g., polymarket_*, pipeworx_*, get_article, etc.). Naming is predictable and systematic, making it easy to understand the tool's domain and action.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is high for a server named 'Devto', where only a few tools actually relate to DEV.to. The majority are for Pipeworx data and Polymarket, which are unrelated. The tool count feels bloated and misaligned with the server's apparent primary purpose.

Completeness2/5

For the DEV.to domain, coverage is incomplete: lacks create/update/delete for articles and missing user profile management. The Pipeworx and Polymarket tools are extensive, but that doesn't compensate for the gaps in the core feature set implied by the server name.
