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

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".

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=true. The description adds multiple behavioral details: BGE-base-en embeddings, cosine similarity, 500-char overlapping windows, 200K char cap with truncation and flagging, and character offsets in results. 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.

Conciseness5/5

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

Single paragraph, front-loaded with the core action and immediate use case. Every sentence adds value (purpose, scenario, technical details, pairing advice). No redundant words or filler.

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?

Covers all aspects needed: purpose, when to use, technical details (embeddings, window, cap), output format (offsets and scores), and complementary tools. Despite no output schema, the description sufficiently informs the agent of return values.

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 operational context: clarifies that 'text' is the already-fetched document, explains the output format (passages with offsets and scores), and notes the default limit of 5. This provides meaning beyond raw schema 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?

The description clearly states the tool performs semantic search inside a fetched record, with a specific verb ('search INSIDE') and resource ('a fetched record'). It differentiates from siblings like ask_pipeworx_grounded by explaining it operates on already-fetched text and returns passages with offsets.

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 provides a clear alternative: 'Pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded: fetch with the gateway, ground over the relevant passages instead of the whole document.' This gives both context and exclusion criteria.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools are near-identical: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly the same right now, and the three ask_pipeworx variants plus deep_research all route the same underlying catalog. The six polymarket_* tools also have heavily overlapping purposes, requiring deep reading to choose correctly. Most other tools are distinguishable, but these clusters create real misselection risk.

Naming Consistency3/5

The set is uniformly snake_case and mostly descriptive, with consistent micro-families like remember/recall/forget and polymarket_*. However, there is no single convention across the server: verb_noun names (ask_pipeworx, list_subscriptions) mix with noun-first names (entity_profile, bet_research, nearest_color), and the Pipeworx brand is used as both prefix and suffix. Readable but inconsistent.

Tool Count2/5

At 34 tools, the surface is far larger than a typical well-scoped server, and the count is especially unjustified for a server named 'Color' where only three tools relate to that name. The breadth stems from bolting a full data-research platform, prediction-market suite, memory store, and subscription system onto what appears to be a simple utility. Too heavy.

Completeness4/5

For the dominant Pipeworx research domain, the set is unusually thorough: query, grounded verification, deep research, entity resolution, comparisons, claim validation, change feeds, subscriptions, alerts, memory, and discovery are all present. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct account management tool, and color coverage only includes convert/contrast/nearest with no palette generation), but these are workaround-able. Completeness is strong for the real domain, if mismatched with the server name.
