Query

query
Read-onlyIdempotent

Run a Socrata SoQL query against a FCC Open Data dataset by resource_id (e.g. "3xyp-aqkj"). Filter with where/select/group/order (SoQL clauses, without the leading $) plus limit/offset. Returns matching rows as JSON.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only and idempotent behavior. The description adds value by explaining the SoQL syntax, the return format (JSON), and the parameter constraints (no leading $).

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?

Two sentences, each efficiently carrying key information: purpose, syntax guidance, and output format. No filler or repetition.

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?

Given 7 parameters and no output schema, the description adequately covers the query language and return type. It could mention pagination limits or error handling but is sufficient for standard usage.

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?

With 100% schema coverage, the description still adds meaning by clarifying that SoQL clauses should be provided without the leading '$', and by providing concrete examples (e.g., resource_id '3xyp-aqkj'). This prevents common user errors.

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 clearly identifies the tool as running a Socrata SoQL query against FCC Open Data by resource_id, with specific filter clauses and return format. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'datasets' and 'metadata' by focusing on querying a dataset.

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?

Description provides clear context for when to use the tool: to query a dataset with SoQL filters. It does not explicitly exclude alternatives or state when not to use, but the purpose is distinct enough among siblings.

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
Disambiguation3/5

Several tools overlap in purpose: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly identical right now, and ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and validate_claim all query the same underlying data catalog in similar ways. The descriptions provide detailed usage guidance, but the query family and the five-strong Polymarket family still create real misselection risk. Memory, subscription, and FCC tools are clearly distinct.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names are consistently snake_case and mostly follow recognizable verb_noun or prefixed-family patterns (ask_pipeworx_*, polymarket_*, pipeworx_*). The main deviations are bare one-word names like datasets, metadata, query, remember, and forget, plus a few noun-first names like entity_profile and polymarket_arbitrage. Overall the naming is readable and predictable, with only minor inconsistencies.

Tool Count2/5

At 34 tools, this server is well past the 25+ threshold and feels overloaded. It bundles a general-purpose data-query gateway, FCC open-data access, Polymarket analytics, AI-visibility scanning, memory, subscriptions, npm dependency checks, and llms.txt generation into one surface. Each functional area is small on its own, but the combined set would be more coherent split into several focused servers.

Completeness4/5

The core data lifecycle is well covered: discovery (suggest_questions, discover_tools), single queries (ask_pipeworx), grounded/evidence-backed answers, deep multi-source research, entity resolution/profiling/comparison, change feeds, and fact-checking all exist. FCC open data has search, schema, and query tools, and subscriptions/memory have full CRUD-style coverage. Minor gaps remain (e.g., no direct pipeworx:// URI fetch tool, no enumeration of all discoverable data sources), but they do not block typical workflows.
