Search Within a Source

search_within
Read-onlyIdempotent

Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record. Pass the text you already pulled (e.g. a SEC 10-K body, an article, a long tool result) plus a natural-language query; get back the top-N passages with character offsets and similarity scores. Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt — search_within saves context, returns only the passages that matter, and every passage carries an offset so the agent can verify a verbatim quote. Pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded: fetch with the gateway, ground over the relevant passages instead of the whole document. BGE-base-en embeddings + cosine over 500-char overlapping windows; cap is 200K chars (longer inputs are truncated and flagged).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
textYesThe document text to search inside (max ~200K chars).
limitNoMax passages to return (1-20, default 5).
queryYesNatural-language query — what passages do you want? E.g. "supply-chain risk", "fiscal year 2024 revenue", "drug interactions with warfarin".

TDQS

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already cover safety and idempotency, but the description adds critical details: embedding model (BGE-base-en), cosine similarity, 500-char overlapping windows, 200K char cap with truncation flag, and offset for verification. This goes well beyond 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?

Single paragraph, front-loaded with purpose, then usage guidance, then technical details. Every sentence adds value. Slightly verbose but not excessive.

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?

Missing output schema is partially compensated by describing return contents (passages, offsets, scores). Given good annotations and clear param descriptions, the description is complete enough for an agent to use 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%, baseline 3. The description adds concrete examples ('supply-chain risk', etc.) and clarifies constraints (max ~200K chars for 'text', range 1-20 for 'limit', default 5). This adds meaningful context.

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 it performs 'Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record', specifies the inputs (text + query) and outputs (passages with offsets and scores). It distinguishes itself from siblings by mentioning pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded and use case for large records.

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?

Explicitly says 'Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt' and suggests pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded, providing clear when-to-use and an alternative.

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.
