Discover Tools

discover_tools
Read-onlyIdempotent

Find tools by describing the data or task. Use when you need to browse, search, look up, or discover what tools exist for: SEC filings, financials, revenue, profit, FDA drugs, adverse events, FRED economic data, Census demographics, BLS jobs/unemployment/inflation, ATTOM real estate, ClinicalTrials, USPTO patents, weather, news, crypto, stocks. Returns the top-N most relevant tools with names, descriptions, and full input schemas (with curated examples) — each result is ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed. Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer).

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and non-destructive. The description adds that results are 'ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed,' which is useful behavioral context beyond annotations. No contradictions.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

The description is relatively concise but includes a long list of domains which adds verbosity. It is front-loaded with the primary action, but the list reduces conciseness. Could be more structured.

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?

Given no output schema, the description explains the return value (top-N tools with names, descriptions, schemas). It also provides usage guidance and covers the main parameter. Parameter count is high but most are aliases; the description covers the key aspects.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100% and lists all parameters. The description does not add significant meaning beyond the schema; it mentions limit defaults and aliases already in the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Find tools by describing the data or task.' It distinguishes itself from sibling tools by emphasizing discovery and a broad range of domains, and explicitly says to call this first when many tools are available.

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?

The description specifies when to use: for browsing, searching, discovering tools, listing domains. It also says 'Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer),' which guides usage. However, it lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternative tool references.

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
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools have overlapping purposes, such as multiple query tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) and prediction market analysis tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges). While descriptions help differentiate, the clustering of similar functions may cause confusion.

Naming Consistency4/5

All tools use snake_case, but the pattern varies: some start with verbs (forget, remember, recall) while others start with nouns (entity_profile, pipeworx_trending). The naming is generally clear with minor inconsistencies.

Tool Count4/5

With 31 tools, the set is slightly large but appropriate given the broad scope covering company data, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, and more. A few tools like yesterdays_number_get seem out of place, but overall the count is reasonable.

Completeness3/5

The tool set covers many domains comprehensively (SEC, FDA, FRED, prediction markets), but there are notable gaps such as no direct web search or stock price tool beyond routed queries. The server feels like a collection of capabilities rather than a unified domain.
