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.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly/idempotent/destructive flags; the description adds valuable caveats about the 60-day snapshot TTL, dependence on snapshotting being enabled, and that decay numbers come from daily closes rather than intraday. These behavioral details go beyond what annotations provide.

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?

The description is lengthy but information-dense, including purpose, args, response payload, and data caveats. Each section earns its place, though it could be slightly trimmed. It is well-structured with clear sections for args and response.

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?

No output schema exists, so the description thoroughly specifies the response format: tracked[] with edge_pp_net time-series, trend, decay_pp_per_day; expired[] with lifespan_days; and snapshot_dates[] with data-gap semantics. Limits such as TTL and data start time are also disclosed, making the tool's behavior fully transparent.

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% and both parameters are described in the schema itself (days with lookup/clamp, window with enum values). The description reiterates these values ('default 14, max 30', 'default 1wk') and adds the context that window refers to a 'snapshot family', but does not significantly extend 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?

Description states it provides 'edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots' and directly addresses the question 'how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?' This clearly distinguishes it from sibling polymarket_edges which likely surface current edges.

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 contextualizes usage by explaining the trade-off between fresh and old edges ('a fresh wide edge and a 3-week-old wide edge are different trades'), making the intended use clear. It does not explicitly name alternatives or when-not-to-use, but the framing is sufficient.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are nearly identical in routing, differing only in response mode; bet_research and polymarket_edges both surface betting opportunities. Even with detailed descriptions, an agent could easily select the wrong one for a given task.

Naming Consistency2/5

Tool names are all snake_case, but the pattern is inconsistent: some are verb_noun (get_fact, list_breeds, validate_claim), some are noun/adjective compounds (entity_profile, deep_research, bet_research), and several use a pipeworx_ prefix. There is no consistent verb style or object-first convention.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is over the 25-tool threshold for a server whose name suggests a narrow cat-facts focus. Only 3 tools relate to cat facts; the rest form a sprawling data platform, creating a severe scope mismatch that makes the count feel excessive and unfocused.

Completeness3/5

For the cat-facts domain, the set covers the essentials: single fact, multiple facts, and breed listing. However, the overall tool surface is a mix of unrelated capabilities (data lookups, memory, subscriptions, prediction markets) that don't form a coherent domain, leaving the cat-facts portion sparse and the broader set without clear lifecycle coverage.
