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.

A5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, and non-destructive, but the description adds rich behavioral context: data sources (SEC EDGAR/XBRL, FAERS), off-calendar fiscal year handling, sorting by primary metric, and citation URI returns. This goes well beyond the annotations and gives the agent a clear picture of what will happen.

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 compact but densely informative. Each sentence serves a purpose: trigger phrases, preference guidance, type-specific data, sorting behavior, and output format. It is well-structured and front-loaded with the core function.

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 tool's complexity (two entity types, multiple data sources, sorting, citations), the description covers all essential aspects: what it does, when to use, what data it retrieves, how results are ordered, and what the return includes. The absence of an output schema is compensated by describing the return format clearly.

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% for both parameters, and the description further enriches semantics with concrete examples and behavior: type='company' pulls financials, type='drug' pulls FAERS counts, values are tickers/CIKs or drug names. It also clarifies the 2–5 range and how results are used.

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 a specific verb and resource: 'side-by-side comparison of 2–5 companies or drugs in ONE parallel call.' It clearly distinguishes from sibling tools like entity_profile (single entity) and search tools by emphasizing the comparative, multi-entity nature and the efficiency advantage.

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?

Provides explicit when-to-use guidance: 'ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities.' It lists trigger phrases and explains type-specific contexts, making it easy to decide when to invoke this tool.

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 tool groups have unclear boundaries: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical right now, polymarket_edges/arbitrage/bet_research overlap heavily, and scan_competitor_ai_presence merely wraps ai_visibility_check. An agent would frequently have to guess which of several overlapping tools to call.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools use lowercase snake_case, but the set mixes verb-first names (resolve_entity, validate_claim) with noun/service-first compounds (polymarket_edges, pipeworx_trending, ai_visibility_check) and inconsistent suffix semantics (ask_pipeworx_beta vs ask_pipeworx_grounded). The pattern is readable but not predictable.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is far too many for a server named iplookup; only 2 of 33 relate to IP geolocation. The rest form a sprawling data/prediction-market/memory platform that would be better split into multiple focused servers.

Completeness4/5

Within the actual described scope (a Pipeworx data platform), coverage is strong: routed lookups, grounded verification, deep research, entity identity/profile/comparison, claim validation, discovery, subscriptions, memory, feedback, trending, and a full prediction-market arbitrage suite. Minor gaps exist (no direct pack-listing tool, no update for memory values), but there are no critical dead ends.
