Query Layer

query_layer
Read-onlyIdempotent

Query an ArcGIS Feature Service / Map Service layer by its url (from search_datasets). SQL-like where, comma-separated out_fields, order_by, limit, offset. Returns attribute rows (and geometry). Use where="1=1" + out_fields="*" to sample.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
urlYesFeature/Map Service layer url ending in /FeatureServer/<n> or /MapServer/<n>.
limitNoMax features (1-2000, default 50).
whereNoSQL where clause, e.g. "STATE = 'CA' AND YEAR >= 2020". Default "1=1".
offsetNoPagination offset.
order_byNoe.g. "POP DESC".
out_fieldsNoComma-separated field names, or "*" for all (default).

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and idempotentHint=true. The description adds behavioral context by noting it returns 'attribute rows (and geometry)' and uses SQL-like where clause and pagination, which goes beyond the annotations. No contradiction.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the primary action, followed by parameter summary and return type. No wasted words.

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 explains the return format (attribute rows and geometry) and provides a usage tip. It covers the core workflow (use with search_datasets, sampling) and relies on schema for param details. Adequate, though it could mention error handling or service format constraints.

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 baseline is 3. The description repeats parameter names (where, out_fields, order_by, limit, offset) but doesn't add new syntax details beyond the schema. The sampling tip is a small value-add, so score remains at 3.

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 explicitly states 'Query an ArcGIS Feature Service / Map Service layer by its url' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like search_datasets by noting the URL comes from search_datasets, and from layer_info by indicating it returns attribute rows and geometry.

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 provides clear context: the tool is for querying a specific layer URL obtained from search_datasets. It includes a practical sampling tip ('where="1=1" + out_fields="*"'), but does not explicitly mention when not to use it or alternatives beyond the implicit distinction from search_datasets.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical, and the prediction-market cluster (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_fill_risk, polymarket_edge_tracker, polymarket_kalshi_spread) has heavily overlapping purposes that require reading long descriptions to separate. The server name promises ArcGIS Dukes County but most tools are unrelated, making the overall selection space confusing.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most names are snake_case, but conventions vary: some are verb_noun (query_layer, search_datasets, list_subscriptions), some noun-ish (entity_profile, layer_info, pipeworx_trending), some bare verbs (remember, recall, forget, subscribe), and some long compounds (polymarket_edge_tracker, scan_competitor_ai_presence). Readable overall, but no strong consistent pattern.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is heavy, and only three (search_datasets, layer_info, query_layer) relate to the server's apparent ArcGIS Dukes County purpose. The rest form a sprawling Pipeworx/prediction-market/memory/utility toolkit, creating a severe scope mismatch with the server's name.

Completeness2/5

For the named Dukes County GIS domain, the surface is minimal—dataset discovery, schema, and queries—with no spatial operations or editing, though read-only access may be acceptable. For the broader Pipeworx functionality it is fairly comprehensive, but that is not what the server name advertises, leaving the set incomplete relative to its apparent identity.
