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.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Beyond annotations (readOnly, idempotent), description adds: pulls latest data, handles fiscal year variations, sorts by primary metric, returns citation URIs, and replaces many lookups. No contradiction 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?

Single paragraph is dense but not verbose. Front-loaded with trigger phrases. Every sentence adds value, though structure could be more bulleted for readability.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers input format, data sources, sorting, output structure, and efficiency benefits. No output schema, so description compensates. Minor gap: no mention of error handling or data freshness limits.

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% (baseline 3). Description adds meaning: clarifies data sources per type, specifies tickers/CIKs for company vs. drug names, and gives examples. Enhances understanding beyond basic schema descriptions.

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 specifies verb 'compare' and resources 'companies or drugs' (2-5). Includes concrete trigger phrases and distinguishes from siblings like entity_profile by emphasizing multi-entity comparison.

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 states 'ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities,' providing clear when-to-use guidance. Implies alternative (single-entity lookup) but does not name a specific sibling tool.

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes with detailed descriptions. However, 'ask_pipeworx' and 'ask_pipeworx_grounded' are very similar, and 'polymarket_arbitrage' and 'polymarket_edges' overlap in scope, which could cause confusion for an agent.

Naming Consistency3/5

Tool names mostly use snake_case but mix verb-first (e.g., 'compare_entities', 'resolve_entity') and noun-first (e.g., 'air_quality', 'entity_profile') patterns. Some names are single words ('forecast', 'geocode'), showing overall inconsistency.

Tool Count3/5

With 30 tools, the server covers many domains (weather, company info, betting, memory, subscriptions). While each tool serves a purpose, the count is on the higher side and could be streamlined, but it's not excessive given the diverse functionality.

Completeness4/5

The tool set provides comprehensive coverage for its domains: weather (current, forecast, air quality), company research (profile, compare, recent changes, validation), betting (research, arbitrage, edges), memory (CRUD), and subscriptions (CRUD). Minor gaps include no tool for editing subscriptions or deleting weather data, but these are outside the intended scope.
