Entity Profile

Read-onlyIdempotent

"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.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already convey safety (read-only, idempotent, non-destructive), so the description goes far beyond them by disclosing fan-out behavior, fallbacks (GDELT→GNews), per-source matching rules (helix_id exact match, ALL DUNS), edge cases (empty section = real no-data), and output shape. This gives the agent an unusually complete model of what the call will and will not return.

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 dense and front-loaded with purpose and the ALWAYS PREFER rule, and every clause adds operational detail. It loses a point only because the very long single-paragraph format with many parenthetical clauses is harder to scan than structured bullets would be.

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?

For a complex tool with no output schema, the description is complete: it covers all input shapes, all returned sections, source fallback behavior, failure semantics, and the meaning of an empty result. An agent can confidently invoke this tool without needing external documentation.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds value by giving concrete examples (AAPL, 0000320193, Moderna), confirming that type=company and type=ticker are interchangeable, and warning that a private company with no CIK/ticker yields resolved:false with an explicit notes line — behavior not present in the schema.

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 concrete trigger phrases and then states a specific verb-resource pair: 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call.' It enumerates the exact data domains (SEC, XBRL, patents, contracts, FDA, H-1B, news, GLEIF), making it distinguishable from narrower single-source lookups and from the resolve_entity sibling.

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 says 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view,' which is a direct when-to-use instruction. It also clarifies the private-company boundary (resolved:false + notes) so an agent knows not to treat a non-public company as a hard failure.

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 have overlapping or near-identical purposes: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are currently functionally identical, ask_pipeworx_grounded is the same router with an extraction step, and discover_tools vs suggest_questions both serve as 'what can I do here' entry points. The polymarket_* family is more distinct, but the ask_pipeworx/deep_research overlap alone makes tool selection genuinely ambiguous.

Naming Consistency4/5

The vast majority of tools follow lowercase snake_case with recognizable domain prefixes (ask_pipeworx*, polymarket_*, pipeworx_*), which is a decent pattern. However, there are bare-noun tools (events, locations, recall, forget) and mixed verb-first vs noun-first ordering (list_subscriptions vs entity_profile, scan_dependency vs polymarket_edges), so it is not perfectly uniform.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is well above the comfortable range and feels heavy even for a broad data-research platform. Many tools are narrow variations (five polymarket analysis tools, four ask_pipeworx variants, three memory tools) that could plausibly be consolidated or exposed as parameterized modes rather than separate top-level tools.

Completeness4/5

For the actual domain suggested by the tool names and descriptions—structured data research, entity profiling, claim verification, and prediction-market analysis—the surface is quite complete: lookup, grounded answers, deep research, comparisons, recent-change tracking, subscriptions, memory, and arbitrage/fill-risk analysis are all covered. However, relative to the server name 'Edmtrain', the event-discovery surface is extremely thin (only events and locations), which is a notable mismatch.
