Recent Changes

recent_changes
Read-onlyIdempotent

"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.

typeYesEntity type. Only "company" supported today.
sinceYesWindow start — ISO date ("2026-04-01") or relative ("7d", "30d", "3m", "1y"). Use "30d" or "1m" for typical monitoring.
valueYesTicker (e.g., "AAPL") or zero-padded CIK (e.g., "0000320193").

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. The description adds significant context: parallel fan-out to multiple sources, fallback mechanism, soft-fail for USPTO, return structure (changes[] grouped by source, total_changes, citation URIs). No contradiction.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single well-structured paragraph, front-loaded with example queries. Every sentence adds necessary information: sources, fallback, parameter details, return format, and sibling differentiation. No fluff.

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?

Given the complexity (multiple sources, fallbacks, edge cases) and lack of output schema, the description fully covers behavior, return structure, and error conditions (soft-fail, rate limiting). It is complete for an agent to 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%. The description adds value by explaining each parameter: 'since' accepts ISO or relative shorthand with example, 'value' accepts ticker or CIK, 'type' has only 'company' supported. It also recommends typical window ('30d' or '1m').

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 explicitly states the tool provides a change feed for a company in a time window, lists the sources (SEC EDGAR, GDELT→GNews, USPTO), and distinguishes from sibling entity_profile which gives a static profile. The verb 'get' is implied, and the resource is clearly 'changes'.

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 provides example queries ('What's new with X', 'latest on Y'), explains when to use (monitoring changes over time), and explicitly says when not to use ('Use entity_profile instead when you want the static profile'). It also explains fallback behavior (GDELT→GNews) and date parsing.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools have overlapping purposes (e.g., three variants of ask_pipeworx, several polymarket tools, and multiple discovery/entity tools). Despite detailed descriptions, the similiar functionalities create confusion for an agent selecting among them.

Naming Consistency3/5

Tool names are consistently in snake_case but the verb/noun pattern is mixed: some start with verbs (ask_, list_, remember_), others with nouns (entity_profile, polymarket_edges). This inconsistency reduces predictability.

Tool Count2/5

35 tools is high for a single server, especially when the scope spans two disparate domains (HDX humanitarian data and Pipeworx data platform). Many tools could be logically split into separate, more focused servers.

Completeness3/5

The tool set covers a wide range of functionality (data retrieval, comparison, monitoring, memory) but has notable gaps: no direct data download tool for HDX resources, no account management, and no exploration of Pipeworx packs beyond discover_tools.
