Compare Entities

compare_entities
Read-onlyIdempotent

"Compare X and Y" / "X vs Y" / "X versus Y" / "which is bigger / better / larger / more profitable" / "rank these companies" / "head to head" — side-by-side comparison of 2–5 companies or drugs in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities. type="company" pulls LATEST 10-K revenue + net income + cash + long-term debt from SEC EDGAR/XBRL (off-calendar fiscal years handled correctly — AAPL Sep, NVDA Jan, etc.). type="drug" pulls FAERS adverse-event counts, FDA approval counts, active trial counts. Results sorted by primary metric so "largest" / "most" / "biggest" reads off the top of the response. Returns paired data + pipeworx:// citation URIs per entity. Replaces 8–15 sequential lookups.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, open-world. Description adds context: pulls latest 10-K data for companies (with off-calendar fiscal year handling) and FAERS/FDA/trials for drugs. Also mentions sorted results by primary metric. No contradictions with annotations.

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 well-structured with front-loaded query examples. Every sentence contributes meaning, though slightly verbose. Could be trimmed by 10-15% without losing clarity.

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?

Covers all key aspects: purpose, data sources, sorting, citation URIs, and efficiency claim. No output schema is present, but description provides sufficient behavioral detail for an agent to decide and invoke correctly.

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%, but description adds significant value: explains enum values (company vs drug) with what data each fetches, provides example inputs (tickers/CIKs for companies, drug names), and reiterates min/max constraints.

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 explicitly states the tool compares 2-5 entities side by side, with specific data for companies (10-K financials) and drugs (FAERS, FDA, trials). It distinguishes from sequential lookups and uses clear query patterns like 'X vs Y'.

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?

Explicitly advises to prefer this tool over sequential lookups when comparing entities. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use (e.g., for single entity lookup, where entity_profile would be appropriate), though the schema minItems=2 enforces this.

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

Several tools are difficult to distinguish: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are currently identical, and ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and ask_pipeworx have fuzzy boundaries. The polymarket_* family plus bet_research also overlap heavily, requiring agents to carefully parse long descriptions to avoid misselection.

Naming Consistency4/5

Naming is predominantly snake_case with a verb-first pattern (ask_, search, subscribe, unsubscribe, list_) and clear prefix families like polymarket_ and pipeworx_. Minor deviations like ai_visibility_check and entity_profile use noun-first phrasing, but the overall pattern is still predictable and readable.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is heavy for any single server, and the count is especially inappropriate given the server is named Digitalnz but only two tools (search, record) serve that domain. The rest form an unrelated grab-bag of data research, prediction-market, AI-visibility, memory, and utility tools.

Completeness3/5

The research workflow is fairly well covered: ask/grounded/deep modes, entity resolution, comparisons, claim validation, subscriptions, and alerts all exist. However, the DigitalNZ surface is nearly absent—just search and record—which is a significant gap for the declared server name, while other domains like AI visibility and npm dependencies are isolated one-offs.
