Ask Pipeworx

ask_pipeworx
Read-onlyIdempotent

PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for questions about current or historical data: SEC filings, FDA drug data, FRED/BLS economic statistics, government records, USPTO patents, ATTOM real estate, weather, clinical trials, news, stocks, crypto, sports, academic papers, or anything requiring authoritative structured data with citations. Routes the question to the right one of 6,984 tools across 1834 verified sources, fills arguments, returns the structured answer with stable pipeworx:// citation URIs. Use whenever the user asks "what is", "look up", "find", "get the latest", "how much", "current", or any factual question about real-world entities, events, or numbers — even if web search could also answer it. Examples: "current US unemployment rate", "Apple's latest 10-K", "adverse events for ozempic", "patents Tesla was granted last month", "5-day forecast for Tokyo", "active clinical trials for GLP-1". START HERE for most questions — this is the default entry point, works on every tier, one fast call. Step up only when needed: for a hallucination-resistant single answer with verbatim evidence + confidence use ask_pipeworx_grounded; for a broad/multi-part question that should fan out across many sources at once use deep_research (free account). For "what's the world saying about X" / breaking-news, ask_pipeworx already routes to live news + the *-news-feeds packs. Optionally pass packs:["slug","slug"] to restrict routing to specific sources ("answer this using THESE packs"); omit it for full-catalog routing.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
qNoAlias for question.
askNoAlias for question.
textNoAlias for question.
inputNoAlias for question.
packsNoOPTIONAL. Restrict routing to these pack slugs (e.g. ["sec-form-d","sec-13f"]) — the router then picks only from tools in those packs. Omit for the default full-catalog routing. Slugs come from list_packs / search_packs / https://pipeworx.io/directory; unlisted or unknown slugs are ignored and named in _meta.pack_scope.ignored, and if none of them resolves the question is routed across the whole catalog with _meta.pack_scope.full_catalog:true (never an empty answer).
queryNoAlias for question.
promptNoAlias for question.
messageNoAlias for question.
questionYesYour question or request in natural language. Accepts query, q, prompt, text, input, ask, message as aliases.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations declare readOnly/idempotent/openWorld, but the description adds behavior those flags cannot: it routes to a fixed verified catalog, returns stable pipeworx:// citation URIs, and specifies the fallback semantics (unknown pack slugs are ignored, and if none resolve, routing falls back to the full catalog with _meta.pack_scope.full_catalog:true, never an empty answer). That is substantive disclosure beyond structured data.

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?

Front-loaded with the strongest routing cue ('PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH') before the sibling routing rules. It is long and somewhat list-heavy with many example phrasings, but the length is defensible for a router covering thousands of sources; a few examples could be trimmed without loss.

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?

For a read-only, no-output-schema router, it covers when to use it, the alternative tools, routing scope, and fallback behavior. It stops short of describing the response shape beyond 'structured answer with citation URIs,' which arguably matters for a tool whose output varies by routed source.

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 description coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description frames packs as 'answer this using THESE packs' vs 'omit for full-catalog routing,' which adds usage intent, but the schema already documents the same restriction and fallback behavior in detail, so little is added beyond what the structured field provides.

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+resource+mechanism: routes a natural-language question to the right one of 6,984 tools across 1834 sources, fills arguments, and returns a cited answer. It explicitly distinguishes itself from siblings ask_pipeworx_grounded and deep_research, so an agent can place it without opening any schema.

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 an explicit preference ('PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH'), a default posture ('START HERE for most questions'), trigger phrases ('what is', 'look up', 'how much', 'current'), and named alternatives with the exact condition that selects each ('step up only when needed ... grounded for a single hallucination-resistant answer, deep_research for broad/multi-part'). Nothing important is left to inference.

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