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 5,798 tools across 1517 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.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already mark read-only/open-world/idempotent. The description adds behavioral detail: it routes across 5,798 tools, fills arguments, returns structured answers with stable pipeworx:// citation URIs, and already handles live news. This goes beyond annotations, though no failure/rate-limit behavior is disclosed.

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?

Dense but well front-loaded: preference rule, use cases, examples, then sibling routing. Some repetition and a slightly garbled transition in the final section keep it from a perfect structure score.

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 complex routing entry point with no output schema, it covers when to use, what it returns (structured answer with citations), and how to choose alternatives. Minor omissions such as failure modes or response size limits are acceptable given the annotations and rich examples.

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 documents the question parameter plus aliases, so the description need not repeat parameter mechanics. It adds illustrative example questions and trigger phrases, which are helpful but not essential 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 a specific action (ask/routes/returns) and defines the resource scope: factual questions about real-world data across many listed domains, with citations. It clearly positions this as a search/query tool distinct from siblings by naming alternatives.

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 instructs to prefer over web search, provides trigger phrases and examples, and names alternatives: ask_pipeworx_grounded for simple single targeted questions, deep_research for broad multi-part questions. This gives an agent clear routing guidance.

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

C2.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Many tools have overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, discover_tools, and suggest_questions all serve query/research; polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, bet_research, and polymarket_edge_tracker all analyze prediction markets; entity_profile, compare_entities, and recent_changes overlap on company research. An agent could easily select the wrong one.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are lowercase snake_case, but the verb-noun convention is inconsistent: some are verb-first (ask_pipeworx, generate_llms_txt, validate_claim), some noun-first (entity_profile, polymarket_edges, recent_changes), and some are bare nouns (query, metadata, datasets). The pattern is readable but not uniform.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is excessive for the apparent scope, especially given the server name suggests a Chicago city-data focus while the vast majority of tools are generic data-research, prediction-market, and memory utilities. This feels like a kitchen-sink bundle rather than a focused, well-scoped toolset.

Completeness2/5

The tool surface is a disjointed collection covering querying, research, memory, subscriptions, and prediction markets, but it lacks coherent lifecycle coverage for any single domain. For the named 'Cityofchicago' purpose, there is almost no city-specific functionality, and even as a general data tool, obvious gaps remain (e.g., no direct dataset management or update/delete operations).
