Recent Alerts

recent_alerts
Read-onlyIdempotent

Pull fired events from your subscription feed. Returns the most recent alerts the evaluator has written to your persisted feed — each carries source, citation_uri (pipeworx:// when available), and the raw event payload. Filter by type (e.g. "sec_8k") and/or since (ISO timestamp). Set mark_read:true to flag returned events read so the next call only shows newer ones. Polls work fine; the same feed is also at GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json for scripts and dashboards.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeNoOptional — filter to one subscription type.
limitNoMax events to return (1-200, default 50).
sinceNoOptional ISO timestamp — return events fired_at >= this time.
mark_readNoFlag the returned events read in the same call (default false).
unread_onlyNoReturn only events where read_at is null (default false).

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already state readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, etc. The description adds details: the mark_read parameter affects future calls, the return fields include source and citation_uri, and the feed is also accessible via a GET endpoint. This goes beyond annotations without contradiction.

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?

The description is five sentences, no fluff. It front-loads the purpose, explains return fields, then filtering, then mark_read effect, then a note on polling and alternative access. Every sentence serves a purpose.

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?

With 5 parameters and no output schema, the description covers purpose, return fields, filtering, mark_read, polling suitability, and an alternative access point. However, it doesn't explicitly mention the 'unread_only' parameter or ordering of results, which are minor gaps.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, baseline is 3. The description adds value by giving an example for type ('sec_8k') and explaining the effect of mark_read (flagging read so next call shows newer). It does not repeat all schema details, but the examples enhance understanding.

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 starts with 'Pull fired events from your subscription feed,' clearly stating the action (pull) and resource (fired events from subscription feed). It specifies return fields (source, citation_uri, payload) and distinguishes itself by providing an alternative access method via GET endpoint, differentiating from sibling tools.

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 gives clear context on when to use this tool—to retrieve alerts with filtering options and mark_read functionality. It notes that polls work fine and even provides an alternative URL for scripts/dashboards, but does not explicitly state when not to use it or compare with siblings like list_subscriptions.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple query entry points have overlapping boundaries: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are currently identical, suggest_questions and discover_tools both serve discovery/onboarding, and validate_claim overlaps with ask_pipeworx_grounded. With 34 tools including five Polymarket edge/scanner tools, an agent can easily select the wrong meta-tool despite the detailed descriptions.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are lowercase snake_case, so there is no style chaos, but the pattern is inconsistent: verb-led names like ask_pipeworx and validate_claim mix with noun-led names like entity_profile, recent_alerts, and polymarket_arbitrage, plus bare memory verbs like remember/recall/forget. Related tools are also not aligned, such as ai_visibility_check vs scan_competitor_ai_presence.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is too many for a server branded 'Data Toronto', and many tools are only loosely related to the core data-access purpose: ask_pipeworx_beta, generate_llms_txt, scan_dependency, ai_visibility_check, and the memory trio feel like bolt-ons. Even granting Pipeworx's broad research scope, the set is over-stuffed rather than well-scoped.

Completeness4/5

The data-research surface is unusually comprehensive: search, deep research, entity resolution/profiling, comparison, claim validation, alerts/subscriptions, and Toronto open-data querying are all covered. The main gaps are Toronto-side metadata details like resource schemas/columns and a way to browse the full dataset catalogue without a keyword.
