## 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

### Label Safety Check
1. Search `fda_label_search` for a drug's boxed warnings and dosing.
2. Cross-check `clinical_guideline_search` for standard-of-care recommendations.
