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

TableJSON 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).

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

The annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds behavioral details: the mark_read flag modifies state (marking events read), and it explains the returned fields and filter capabilities, which go beyond the annotations.

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 three sentences long, front-loaded with the main action, and efficiently covers purpose, return data, filtering, and mark_read behavior without any redundant or filler content.

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?

Despite lacking an output schema, the description explains what each event carries. It covers all filter options, the mark_read side-effect, and even mentions an alternative access method. For a read-only tool with 5 optional parameters, this is complete.

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?

The schema already provides descriptions for all 5 parameters (100% coverage). The description adds context for type (example 'sec_8k'), since (ISO timestamp), and the effect of mark_read, but these are minor improvements. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 it pulls fired events from a subscription feed. It specifies the return fields (source, citation_uri, raw payload) and distinguishes this tool from siblings like list_subscriptions and subscribe by focusing on reading alerts rather than managing subscriptions.

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 advises that polling works fine and mentions an alternative REST endpoint for scripts/dashboards, providing some usage context. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool vs. sibling tools, though the context makes it clear it's for reading alerts.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools occupy overlapping roles: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are near-identical entry points (beta currently behaves exactly like stable), while entity_profile, recent_changes, and compare_entities all target company research. The prediction-market cluster (bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edge_tracker, polymarket_fill_risk, polymarket_kalshi_spread) is large enough that an agent could easily select the wrong one.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are mixed throughout: verb_noun patterns (search_dois, list_repositories, validate_claim) coexist with noun phrases (entity_profile, recent_alerts, ai_visibility_check) and bare verbs (remember, recall, forget, subscribe). The only consistent thread is snake_case, but the grammatical style is unpredictable.

Tool Count2/5

At 34 tools, the server is overstuffed, especially given its apparent focus is DataCite but only 3 tools actually serve that domain (get_doi, search_dois, list_repositories). The rest are a grab bag of Pipeworx data routing, prediction-market analytics, memory, and subscription utilities that would be better split into separate focused servers.

Completeness2/5

The DataCite surface is incomplete (no DOI creation, update, or deletion despite DataCite supporting registration), while the Pipeworx surface has no direct fetch-by-URI tool for the pipeworx:// citations that other tools return. The presence of a duplicate beta router and a beta router with no active differences further muddies the coverage picture.
