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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations provide idempotentHint=true and openWorldHint=true. The description adds critical behaviors: OAuth requirement, SMS phone verification, 10/day SMS cap, and webhook auto-disable after 10 consecutive failures. These details are beyond what annotations convey and accurately disclose side effects and constraints.

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 a single dense paragraph that effectively conveys all necessary information without redundancy. However, it could be improved by breaking into bullet points or sections for easier scanning. The front-loading of the main action and return value is good.

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?

Given the tool's complexity (3 parameters, nested objects, no output schema), the description covers all relevant aspects: types, parameter structures, delivery channels, prerequisites, constraints, and error conditions. The agent has sufficient information to use the tool correctly. The return value is briefly mentioned but adequately.

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%, yet the description significantly enriches parameter meaning. For 'type', it explains each enum value's purpose. For 'params', it gives concrete examples per type. For 'delivery', it details field-specific constraints (phone format, webhook signing, auto-disable). This exceeds 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's purpose: 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id.' This is a specific verb+resource combination that distinguishes it from sibling tools 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 provides explicit prerequisites ('Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account') and lists all supported subscription types with examples. It also explains delivery options and constraints like SMS verification and daily cap. However, it does not explicitly contrast with alternatives like 'recent_alerts' for pulling from the feed.

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

A4.1/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools have distinct purposes, but the ask_pipeworx variants (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded) and the prediction market tools (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage) can cause confusion due to overlapping functionality. Some tools like 'seattle_recent' are vague.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow a consistent verb_noun or noun_verb pattern (e.g., validate_claim, resolve_entity). However, a few like 'seattle_recent' and 'pipeworx_trending' deviate slightly, and 'recent_alerts' mixes noun_verb.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is excessive for a single server, covering data retrieval, prediction markets, Seattle data, memory, subscriptions, and utility. The broad scope feels bloated and overwhelming, making it hard for agents to find the right tool.

Completeness4/5

The server covers a wide array of domains with good depth in data retrieval and prediction markets. Minor gaps exist (e.g., Seattle tools limited to four datasets, no other city data), but overall it addresses most use cases its tools suggest.
