Read-onlyIdempotent

ACCOUNT REQUIRED (free — sign in via GitHub at https://pipeworx.io/signup; depth:"thorough" needs a paid plan). If you are not signed in, use ask_pipeworx instead — it works on every tier. Grounded multi-source research across Pipeworx's 1500 STRUCTURED data sources (SEC filings, FRED/BLS economics, FDA, USPTO patents, markets, science, government records, etc.) in ONE call — this is NOT open-web search. Decomposes your question into focused facets, routes each to the right one of 5,743 tools IN PARALLEL, and returns a findings packet: verbatim evidence + confidence + source + fetched_at + a stable pipeworx:// citation per finding, with explicit gaps[] for facets the data couldn't answer (never invented). Best for broad/multi-part questions over structured data ("compare X and Y's regulatory + financial exposure", "research the filings + market picture for ACME"). For a single lookup use ask_pipeworx (one LLM call, not many). For BREAKING or colloquial CURRENT-NEWS / "what's the world saying about X" topics, prefer ask_pipeworx — it routes to live news APIs and the *-news-feeds packs; deep_research returns mostly empty gaps[] when the topic isn't in the structured catalog. Second-hop iteration: depth:"standard" re-angles unanswered gaps (gap recovery); depth:"thorough" additionally chases the best leads from the first pass — so multi-step questions resolve in one call. Every finding carries a hop field and a citation_uri — a resolvable pipeworx:// record URI, present only when the source emits one that resources/read can actually serve, so a citation you get back is always fetchable. "standard" and "thorough" also return contradictions[] flagging findings that disagree. Large records are semantically excerpted to the passages relevant to each facet (not head-truncated), so answers deep in a long filing/series aren't missed. Expect 15-60s (thorough with its follow-up + contradiction pass: up to ~90s).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
depthNoHow many facets to research in parallel: quick=3 (single hop), standard=3 (default; adds a gap-recovery hop that re-angles unanswered facets + a contradictions[] scan across findings), thorough=6 (paid; adds a full iterative hop that chases leads + recovers gaps, plus the contradictions[] scan).
questionYesThe research question, in natural language. Broad/multi-part is fine — decomposition is the point.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the readOnly/idempotent annotations by disclosing auth/pricing constraints, parallel decomposition across 5,743 tools, the findings packet (evidence, confidence, source, fetched_at, pipeworx:// citation), gaps[] for unanswered facets, contradictions[], semantic excerpting, hop behavior, and latency. No contradiction with annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Dense but front-loaded: the auth gate and fallback appear before the core behavior. It is long for a two-parameter tool, but the complexity of the tool justifies most of the content; slight trimming would make it tighter.

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?

Complete for a tool with no output schema: an agent knows when to use it, what it returns, how gaps are handled, whether citations are resolvable, and how long to wait. Nothing critical is missing.

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%, so baseline is 3. The description adds real nuance by explaining what makes good questions, depth pricing, gap-recovery hops, and latency—but much of the depth semantics are already present in the schema's enum descriptions.

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?

States a specific verb and resource: 'Grounded multi-source research across Pipeworx's 1500 STRUCTURED data sources'. Explicitly differentiates itself with 'this is NOT open-web search' and names sibling tools ask_pipeworx and the news packs.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives explicit selection rules: use for broad/multi-part structured questions; 'For a single lookup use ask_pipeworx'; prefer ask_pipeworx for breaking/current-news topics. Also provides fallback guidance for signed-out users and depth-level timing expectations.

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

Several tools overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx_beta is explicitly identical to ask_pipeworx right now, and ask_pipeworx_grounded shares the same router. The universal ask_pipeworx router also subsumes many domain-specific tools (attom_*, entity_profile, etc.), making it unclear when to use the specialist tools versus the catch-all.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case and mostly descriptive, but conventions vary: ask_* and attom_* prefixes coexist with bare verbs (remember, forget, subscribe), noun phrases (entity_profile, polymarket_edges), and adjective-prefixed names (recent_alerts, recent_changes). The pattern is readable but not uniform.

Tool Count2/5

39 tools is well over the 25+ threshold for a heavy surface, especially for a server named 'Attom' that also includes memory, subscriptions, feedback, npm scanning, and AI-visibility tools beyond real estate. Many tools could be consolidated (e.g., the three ask_pipeworx variants, the six polymarket tools).

Completeness4/5

The real estate domain is well covered (search, detail, AVM, rental AVM, sales history, trends, assessment, schools), and the broader data platform includes discovery, grounded answers, entity profiles, comparisons, claim validation, subscriptions, and memory. Minor gaps exist only around edge features like OAuth-gated subscription persistence.
