Search Within a Source

search_within
Read-onlyIdempotent

Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record. Pass the text you already pulled (e.g. a SEC 10-K body, an article, a long tool result) plus a natural-language query; get back the top-N passages with character offsets and similarity scores. Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt — search_within saves context, returns only the passages that matter, and every passage carries an offset so the agent can verify a verbatim quote. Pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded: fetch with the gateway, ground over the relevant passages instead of the whole document. BGE-base-en embeddings + cosine over 500-char overlapping windows; cap is 200K chars (longer inputs are truncated and flagged).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
textYesThe document text to search inside (max ~200K chars).
limitNoMax passages to return (1-20, default 5).
queryYesNatural-language query — what passages do you want? E.g. "supply-chain risk", "fiscal year 2024 revenue", "drug interactions with warfarin".

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, etc.) are already provided. Description adds implementation details (BGE embeddings, cosine, 500-char windows, 200K char cap with truncation flagging) and notes that passages carry offsets.

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?

Single dense paragraph, front-loaded with purpose, no filler. Every sentence adds information.

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?

No output schema, but description explains return format (top-N passages, offsets, similarity scores). Covers limitations (200K char truncation) and internal algorithm. Complete for a search tool with rich annotations.

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?

All 3 parameters have schema descriptions (100% coverage). Description adds value with example queries and limit default/range, but schema already provides the core semantics.

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?

Clear verb+resource: semantic search inside a fetched record. Concrete examples (SEC 10-K, article). Distinguishes from siblings by emphasizing search within a specific record vs. other 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?

Explicit when to use: 'Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt.' Mentions pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded, but doesn't fully catalog when not to use or list all alternatives.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Several clusters of tools are hard to tell apart: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all serve overlapping query paths, and the five polymarket_* tools plus bet_research cover heavily overlapping prediction-market analysis. Some pairs are nearly identical in purpose, like ai_visibility_check vs scan_competitor_ai_presence, and the descriptions must be read closely to avoid misselection.

Naming Consistency2/5

All names are snake_case, but the naming style is highly inconsistent across the set: some use verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, generate_llms_txt, resolve_entity), some are noun phrases (entity_profile, pipeworx_feedback, recent_alerts), and some use a vendor prefix without a clear verb (polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker). The pattern shifts between domain-specific prefixes (polymarket_*, pipeworx_*) and generic verbs with no predictable rule.

Tool Count2/5

32 tools is too many for a cohesive server, especially when the surface sprawls across unrelated domains: data querying, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, npm scanning, AI visibility checks, and llms.txt generation. Many tools could be consolidated (the ask_pipeworx family, the polymarket family, the entity-comparison family), which would make the count feel more justified.

Completeness4/5

Within its apparent purpose as a broad data-and-research assistant, the tool set is fairly complete: it covers entity resolution, lookup, grounded verification, deep research, comparisons, memory CRUD, subscription lifecycle, discovery, and feedback. Minor gaps exist, such as no direct tool to fetch a record by its pipeworx:// citation URI (search_within implies fetching happens elsewhere) and no evident update operation for stored memories beyond save/delete.
