Polymarket Edge Tracker

polymarket_edge_tracker
Read-onlyIdempotent

Edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots. Answers "how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?" — a fresh wide edge and a 3-week-old wide edge are different trades (the latter is wide for a reason nobody is willing to take). Args: days (lookback, default 14, max 30), window (snapshot family, default "1wk"). RESPONSE: tracked[] = every opportunity in the LATEST snapshot with its full edge_pp_net time-series across prior snapshots, first_seen, trend (new | widening | stable | decaying) and decay_pp_per_day (both computed on |edge_pp_net| — the value itself is signed by trade direction, negative = SELL YES); expired[] = opportunities that appeared in earlier snapshots but are GONE from the latest (closed, resolved, or arbed away) with their lifespan_days — the median lifespan is your competition clock; snapshot_dates[] = which days actually have data (snapshots are written when polymarket_edges runs on a cache-miss, so gaps mean nobody scanned that day). LIMITS: history depth is bounded by the 60-day snapshot TTL and starts from when snapshotting was enabled; decay numbers come from daily closes of edge_pp_net (net of default slippage), not intraday.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description provides extensive behavioral context beyond annotations: data source (daily snapshots), response structure (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates), limitations (60-day TTL, non-intraday decay), and interpretation nuances (signed edge_pp_net). Annotations already convey safety and idempotency.

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 well-structured: a concise purpose sentence, labeled sections for args, response, and limits. Every sentence adds value without redundancy. The length is appropriate for the complexity of the tool.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description fully documents the return fields (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates) with detailed subfields and meanings. It also covers limitations and data gaps, providing complete context for an AI agent to use the tool correctly.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% with parameter descriptions. The description adds defaults and constraints (e.g., 'default 14, max 30' for days) and explains the 'window' parameter as snapshot family with examples, adding value beyond the schema.

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: providing edge persistence and decay telemetry, answering specifically how long an edge has existed and whether it is shrinking. It differentiates itself from related tools like 'polymarket_edges' by focusing on temporal analysis.

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 implicitly guides usage by stating the question it answers, but does not explicitly compare to sibling tools or provide when-to-use/when-not-to-use guidance. The detailed response structure helps an agent infer appropriate use cases.

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

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most tools have distinct roles, but there is meaningful overlap among the question-answering family (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) and among the Polymarket analysis tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, polymarket_fill_risk). The long descriptions help separate them, but the boundaries are still subtle enough that an agent could easily pick the wrong variant.

Naming Consistency4/5

The naming is mostly snake_case and generally follows a verb_noun pattern (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities, resolve_entity, scan_dependency, validate_claim). Deviations like entity_profile, recent_alerts, recent_changes, and bare verbs (forget, recall, remember, subscribe, unsubscribe) are minor and do not seriously harm predictability.

Tool Count3/5

31 tools is heavy for a single server and suggests the surface is a bundled platform (data queries, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, AI-visibility checks) rather than one tightly scoped domain. Each tool has a rational purpose, but the sheer count plus several meta/didactic tools makes the set feel somewhat oversized.

Completeness4/5

Core workflows are well covered: entity resolution, profiles, comparisons, grounded lookup, fact-checking, deep research, memory CRUD, and subscription lifecycle. Gaps are minor. There are no update operations for subscriptions, and some optional data sources degrade softly, but agents can accomplish the intended research, monitoring, and memory tasks without dead ends.
