Texas Open Data

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.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate this is a mutation (readOnlyHint=false) that is idempotent and non-destructive. The description adds transparency by stating it returns the new subscription id and detailing delivery channel behaviors (e.g., webhook signing, auto-disable after 10 failures). No contradictions 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is well-structured, starting with the core purpose, then requirements, then supported types, and finally delivery channels. Every sentence adds value, though it could be slightly more concise without losing essential details.

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 moderate complexity (3 parameters, nested objects, no output schema), the description is exceptionally complete. It covers prerequisites, return value, type-specific params, delivery behaviors, and constraints like phone verification and rate limits.

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 already providing parameter definitions, the description significantly enriches meaning by giving concrete examples for each 'type' and 'params' combination, and explaining constraints for delivery fields (e.g., phone verification, SMS cap). This goes well beyond the schema alone.

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 explicitly states the tool creates a proactive monitoring subscription and returns the subscription id. It clearly distinguishes this from sibling tools like 'unsubscribe', 'list_subscriptions', and 'recent_alerts'.

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 clear context for when to use the tool, including prerequisites (Pipeworx OAuth account), specific event types with examples, and delivery channel options. It does not explicitly state when not to use it, but the sibling list and the detailed use cases make the appropriate scenarios evident.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Tools are individually well-described, but there is overlapping functionality among ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research, as well as multiple prediction market tools. The detailed descriptions help, but the number of similar tools creates some ambiguity.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names follow a consistent snake_case pattern with descriptive prefixes (e.g., ask_pipeworx, entity_profile, polymarket_edges). There are minor deviations like 'deep_research' vs 'bet_research' but overall the naming is predictable and clear.

Tool Count2/5

The server is named 'Texas Open Data' but only 3 of 33 tools (datasets, metadata, query) are directly related to Texas open data. The remaining tools cover a much broader domain (Pipeworx ecosystem), making the tool count inappropriate for the stated purpose.

Completeness2/5

For the stated purpose of Texas Open Data, the tool surface is incomplete—only basic query and metadata capabilities are provided, lacking data management, update, or delete operations. As a general pipeworx server it might be more complete, but the name suggests Texas-specific data.
