"What's the ticker for…" / "find the CIK for…" / "what's the LEI for…" / "what's the RxCUI for…" / "look up the ID for…" / "what is X's official identifier" / "who owns X" / "is X a subsidiary of Y" — resolve a user-spoken NAME to the canonical/official identifiers other tools require as input. Use FIRST whenever you have a name but need an ID. SUPPORTED TYPES: "company" (cross-source identity spine: 10-digit CIK + ticker + company_name from SEC EDGAR, legal-entity LEI from GLEIF with parent/ultimate-parent/children ownership when the LEI resolves, and security FIGI from OpenFIGI — by exact ticker map when a ticker is implied, and otherwise by name search, so NON-EQUITY instruments that never have a ticker (municipal and corporate bonds, notes, authority debt) DO resolve here; when a name matches more than one instrument it asserts nothing and returns figi_candidates to pick from, which is the correct answer to an issuer name that does not identify a single bond; every identifier is labelled with the source that established it, and an identifier that could NOT be resolved is stated explicitly under unresolved rather than omitted — accepts ticker, CIK, ISIN, or company name as input; an ISIN like "CH0038863350" resolves to the LEGAL ENTITY that issued the security via the GLEIF ISIN-to-LEI mapping, covering non-US issuers EDGAR cannot reach), "drug" (returns RxCUI + ingredient + brand from RxNorm + pipeworx://rxnorm/concept/{rxcui} citation; accepts brand or generic name). LEI/FIGI enrichment degrades gracefully — if GLEIF or OpenFIGI is unavailable, the EDGAR identifiers still return. Each call cascades through several lookup endpoints internally — using resolve_entity replaces 2-3 manual lookups.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeYesEntity type: "company" or "drug".
valueYesFor company: ticker (AAPL), CIK (0000320193), or name. For drug: brand or generic name (e.g., "ozempic", "metformin"). Pass the ENTITY NAME ONLY — for a bond that is the ISSUER exactly as printed ("NEW YORK ST DORM AUTH"), never the question's full noun phrase ("NEW YORK ST DORM AUTH revenue bonds"): the FIGI lookup matches instrument names, so trailing security-class words match nothing.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description goes well beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations by disclosing behaviors such as graceful degradation when GLEIF/OpenFIGI are unavailable, explicit unresolved identifiers, non-assertion on ambiguous matches, and internal cascading lookups. No contradiction with annotations exists.

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 long but front-loaded with purpose and usage guidance before diving into type-specific details. It is dense and somewhat run-on, but every sentence carries substantive information about inputs, outputs, or edge cases, making the length justifiable 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?

For a tool with no output schema, the description adequately covers accepted inputs, supported types, return fields, ambiguity handling, failure behavior, and degradation. The complex multi-source behavior is explained sufficiently for an agent to call the tool correctly and interpret results.

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% and the schema already documents the value parameter in detail. The description adds meaning beyond the schema by noting that ISIN is also accepted as input, explaining the ISIN-to-LEI resolution path, and reinforcing the entity-name-only instruction with bond-specific examples.

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 states a specific verb and resource: resolving user-spoken names to canonical/official identifiers that other tools need. It gives concrete query examples and enumerates supported entity types, making the tool's unique role in the sibling set unmistakable versus profile or comparison tools.

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?

It explicitly says 'Use FIRST whenever you have a name but need an ID,' giving clear when-to-use guidance. It does not name sibling alternatives like entity_profile or compare_entities, nor state explicit when-not-to-use conditions, so it stops short of a full 5.

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

B3.3/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

The tool set contains multiple groups with overlapping purposes (e.g., ask_pipeworx/ask_pipeworx_grounded/deep_research for data queries, multiple Polymarket tools, and memory tools). However, detailed descriptions help differentiate them, so ambiguity is moderate but not severe.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are inconsistent: some tools follow verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities), others use domain-prefixed noun_verb (ghg_emissions_by_sector, polymarket_arbitrage). This mix, combined with a server name that doesn't match the tool domain, makes the naming pattern unclear.

Tool Count1/5

With 35 tools, the server is overloaded, especially given its name 'Epa Emissions' which suggests a narrow focus. Only 5 tools (ghg_*, tri_*) are related to emissions; the rest are unrelated, making the count inappropriate for the server's assumed purpose.

Completeness2/5

For an EPA/emissions server, the tool set is incomplete: it lacks other emissions data (e.g., air quality, water quality, enforcement). The inclusion of many unrelated tools (e.g., Polymarket, memory) does not compensate for missing core emissions coverage.
