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, and idempotent. The description adds significant behavior: pulls from SEC EDGAR/XBRL and FAERS, specifics on metrics (revenue, net income, cash, debt; adverse-event counts, approvals, trials), correct handling of off-calendar fiscal years, sorting by primary metric, and return of citation URIs. This far exceeds annotation coverage without 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 dense but every sentence earns its place. It front-loads query examples, then states core purpose, then type-specific data sources, and closes with sorting and return format. No filler or redundancy.

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?

With no output schema, the description appropriately explains what the tool returns (paired data, citation URIs, sorted results). It covers both entity types and their data sources, and also explains the efficiency advantage over sequential lookups. The description is complete for the tool's complexity.

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?

Although the input schema has 100% coverage for parameters, the description deepens meaning: it explains exactly what each 'type' retrieves, provides concrete examples for 'values' (AAPL/MSFT, ozempic/mounjaro), and notes off-calendar fiscal year behavior. This is genuinely additive guidance.

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 uses a specific verb ('side-by-side comparison') and clearly identifies the resource (2–5 companies or drugs). It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like entity_profile by emphasizing 'ONE parallel call' and showing natural-language trigger phrases. The scope is fully clear.

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?

Explicitly states 'ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities', providing an unambiguous when-to-use directive. It also lists example queries that should invoke this tool, making the usage context unmistakable.

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 unclear boundaries: ask_pipeworx_beta currently behaves identically to ask_pipeworx, and the five Polymarket tools (arbitrage, edges, bet_research, fill_risk, edge_tracker) overlap heavily in the 'should I bet on X' use case. The detailed descriptions help, but an agent could easily misselect between these clusters.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming is highly inconsistent: verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities, resolve_entity), noun_noun (entity_profile, table_meta, polymarket_edges), single verbs (remember, forget, recall), and brand-prefixed compounds (pipeworx_trending, polymarket_kalshi_spread) are all mixed together. The server name 'Stat Gl' also doesn't align with the Pipeworx-heavy tool set.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is well beyond the 25+ threshold that signals an oversized surface, and the set spans disparate domains: data querying, prediction markets, entity research, memory, subscriptions, and even niche utilities like generate_llms_txt and scan_dependency. While each tool has a described purpose, the count feels bloated for a coherent server.

Completeness4/5

Within its actual domains, coverage is strong: query, grounded verification, deep research, claim validation, entity profiles, comparisons, memory CRUD, and subscription lifecycle are all present, plus a complete Statistics Greenland browse/schema/query trio. Minor gaps exist (e.g., limited subscription event types, US-centric company profiles), but agents can typically find a working path without dead ends.
