Instructions for AI Agents

Step 1: Normalize Entities First

Before executing any search or fetch operation, normalize targets, drugs, diseases, companies, and clinical trial IDs to Patsnap internal IDs when possible. This improves retrieval accuracy.

Step 2: Choose the Right Tool

Select search tools for discovery and corresponding _fetch tools for full records. Use vector search tools for natural-language evidence queries.

Step 3: Fetch Full Records

Search tools return summary results with IDs. Follow up with the appropriate _fetch tool when the user needs complete details.

Step 4: Synthesize and Structure Output

Lead with key findings, cite sources, highlight data gaps, and use tables for comparisons.

Example Workflows

Competitive Monitoring

1. Search news_search for a competitor or drug class.
2. Fetch full articles with news_fetch.
3. Summarize key developments and market signals.
