Get earnings call transcript

get_earnings_call_transcript

Retrieve cached earnings-call transcript paragraphs for a specific Bullrun ticker, optionally filtered by fiscal period or search text. Use it to find what was said in recent calls.

Instructions

Read cached earnings-call paragraphs for one exact Bullrun ticker, optionally filtered by fiscal period or search text. A best-effort free background import collects at most the two latest retained calls from DefeatBeta for supported US listings, with a 24-hour stored-data cooldown; the first read may be empty. Coverage and source publication lag vary. Speaker names and paragraph order are retained; roles and prepared/Q&A section labels may be unavailable. Does not change portfolios or user data.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
searchNoOptional case-insensitive text/speaker search across transcript chunks.
tickerYesBullrun ticker, e.g. "CRWD", "SPGI", "V". Use the listing ticker returned by search_stocks. US/European examples: AAPL, BMW, NESN. Most Asian listings keep their exchange suffix (6324.T, 0700.HK); some use bare codes (005930). Native or suffixed forms resolve only when one listing matches; search by company name or ISIN if unsure.
maxChunksNoMaximum speaker-tagged transcript chunks to return.
fiscalYearNoOptional fiscal year filter.
fiscalQuarterNoOptional fiscal quarter filter.
maxCharsPerChunkNoMaximum characters per transcript chunk in the MCP response.

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond annotations, it discloses important behavior: cached/imported data, a 24-hour cooldown, possibly empty first reads, variable source and publication lag, retained speaker names and paragraph order, and potentially missing roles or section labels. It also explicitly states that portfolios and user data are not changed, which clarifies the read-only intent despite readOnlyHint=false.

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 purpose is front-loaded in the first sentence, followed by compact caveats about import behavior, data freshness, and output limitations. Every sentence adds useful context and there is no filler.

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?

With no output schema, the description does enough to set expectations about returned transcript paragraphs, speaker names, paragraph order, and missing section labels. It could more explicitly describe the return shape or pagination behavior, but it is otherwise complete for a cached transcript read tool.

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 coverage is 100%, so all six parameters are already documented in the input schema with descriptions and bounds. The description only restates that fiscal period and search text are optional filters and does not add syntax or selection guidance beyond the schema, so the baseline score of 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 opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Read cached earnings-call paragraphs for one exact Bullrun ticker,' and immediately clarifies optional fiscal-period and search-text filtering. This is precise enough for an agent to distinguish it from portfolio, stock-metrics, and other sibling tools.

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?

It gives useful usage context: the tool reads cached data, a background import may populate up to two recent calls, and the first read may be empty due to a 24-hour cooldown. It does not explicitly name alternatives or when not to use it, but no sibling transcript tool is present, so the missing exclusion guidance is minor.

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