Subscribe to Alerts

subscribe
Idempotent

Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id. Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account (anonymous + BYO cannot persist subscriptions). Supported types: "sec_8k" (8-K filings matching ticker + item codes — e.g. items:["5.02"] = officer change), "polymarket_edge" (Polymarket↔Kalshi cross-venue mispricings — params:{topic:"fed"}), "fred_series" (new FRED observations — params:{series_id:"UNRATE"}). Delivery channels: feed (always on — pull via recent_alerts or GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json), and optionally email (set delivery:{email:"you@x.com"}) or sms (delivery:{sms:"+15551234567"} — phone must be verified at /account first; 10/day cap).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeYesSubscription type.
paramsYesType-specific filter. sec_8k: {ticker:"AAPL", items?:["5.02","1.01"]}. polymarket_edge: {topic:"fed", min_spread_bps?:500}. fred_series: {series_id:"UNRATE"}. patent_grant: {applicant:"Apple Inc."}. clinical_trial: {sponsor?:"Pfizer", condition?:"lung cancer", phase?:"PHASE3"} (sponsor or condition required).
deliveryNoOptional delivery channels in addition to the always-on persistent feed. {email:"you@x.com"} sends a templated alert per fired event. {sms:"+15551234567"} sends an SMS per event — must match the verified phone on the caller's account (verify at https://pipeworx.io/account first; 10/day cap). {webhook:"https://..."} POSTs each event JSON to your endpoint, HMAC-signed — the response includes delivery.webhook_secret (whsec_…) ONCE; verify X-Pipeworx-Signature = sha256 HMAC of "<X-Pipeworx-Timestamp>.<raw body>". Auto-disabled after 10 consecutive failing runs.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. The description adds behavioral details: requires OAuth, returns new subscription id, delivery channel limitations (phone verification, 10/day SMS cap), and webhook auto-disabling after 10 failures. No contradictions 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?

The description is lengthy but packed with necessary information. It is front-loaded with the core purpose and requirements. While it could be slightly more concise, every sentence serves a purpose.

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 mentions the return value. It covers prerequisites, all supported subscription types with examples, delivery options with limitations, and error conditions (webhook auto-disable). The context is complete for an 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.

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds substantial value beyond the schema. For the 'params' object, it provides detailed examples for each type (sec_8k, polymarket_edge, etc.) and clarifies required fields like sponsor or condition for clinical_trial. The delivery object explanation includes validation rules and webhook signing details.

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 creates a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream and returns a new subscription ID. The verb 'subscribe' matches the tool name, and the description distinguishes it from siblings like list_subscriptions and unsubscribe.

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 explicitly requires a Pipeworx OAuth account and notes that anonymous/BYO cannot persist subscriptions. It lists supported types and delivery channels. However, it does not explicitly mention when to avoid using this tool or directly compare to alternatives, but the sibling list provides context.

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

A4.3/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes, such as `entity_profile` for company profiles and `recent_changes` for updates. However, some overlap exists between `ask_pipeworx` and `ask_pipeworx_grounded` (both query data, one with hallucination resistance), and among Polymarket-related tools (`bet_research`, `polymarket_edges`, `polymarket_arbitrage`). Detailed descriptions help distinguish them.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent snake_case pattern (e.g., `ai_visibility_check`, `ask_pipeworx`, `bet_research`, `compare_entities`). No mixing of camelCase or other conventions. The names are descriptive and predictable.

Tool Count3/5

At 29 tools, the server is on the heavy side. While each tool serves a specific function, the broad scope (color naming, Polymarket betting, company research, etc.) makes the count feel slightly high for a single server, though still manageable.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers color naming, company research, Polymarket, AI visibility, memory, subscriptions, and data queries comprehensively. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct SEC filing retrieval without compound tools), but overall it provides a well-rounded surface for its diverse domain.
