Polymarket Edge Tracker

polymarket_edge_tracker
Read-onlyIdempotent

Edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots. Answers "how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?" — a fresh wide edge and a 3-week-old wide edge are different trades (the latter is wide for a reason nobody is willing to take). Args: days (lookback, default 14, max 30), window (snapshot family, default "1wk"). RESPONSE: tracked[] = every opportunity in the LATEST snapshot with its full edge_pp_net time-series across prior snapshots, first_seen, trend (new | widening | stable | decaying) and decay_pp_per_day (both computed on |edge_pp_net| — the value itself is signed by trade direction, negative = SELL YES); expired[] = opportunities that appeared in earlier snapshots but are GONE from the latest (closed, resolved, or arbed away) with their lifespan_days — the median lifespan is your competition clock; snapshot_dates[] = which days actually have data (snapshots are written when polymarket_edges runs on a cache-miss, so gaps mean nobody scanned that day). LIMITS: history depth is bounded by the 60-day snapshot TTL and starts from when snapshotting was enabled; decay numbers come from daily closes of edge_pp_net (net of default slippage), not intraday.

A4.2/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint and idempotentHint true. The description goes beyond by detailing data sources (daily snapshots), limits (60-day TTL, snapshot enablement start), decay calculation from daily closes not intraday, and that gaps indicate no scan. No contradiction.

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 front-loaded with a clear summary and question. It then details args and response structure. While lengthy, every sentence adds value, especially in the RESPONSE section given no output schema. Could be slightly tighter but efficient.

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?

The description is comprehensive: it explains inputs, output structure (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates), limits, and computation details. With no output schema, the RESPONSE section fully compensates. Annotations provide safety profile.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description repeats the same information for 'days' and 'window' parameters without adding new semantic context beyond the schema.

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 provides edge persistence and decay telemetry from daily snapshots. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like polymarket_edges by focusing on historical longevity and shrinkage, answering 'how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?'

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description implies usage for historical edge analysis but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives. No mention of when not to use it or which sibling tool might be more appropriate for current edges.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation1/5

There is severe overlap among tools: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are near-identical variants, and deep_research, discover_tools, and suggest_questions all serve discovery/research purposes. The Discogs-specific tools are distinct, but the large number of redundant Pipeworx tools makes it impossible to tell which one to pick.

Naming Consistency2/5

The Discogs tools follow a clean verb_noun pattern (get_artist, get_label, get_master, get_release), but the majority of the set uses inconsistent, domain-specific names (deep_research, generate_llms_txt, polymarket_arbitrage, scan_competitor_ai_presence). No single naming convention is applied across the server.

Tool Count1/5

With 36 tools, the server is massively over-provisioned for a Discogs-focused API. Most tools (e.g., ask_pipeworx, polymarket_edges, SEC lookups) have nothing to do with Discogs and belong to a separate service. The Discogs surface alone could be served by ~6 tools (search, get_artist, get_label, get_master, get_release, search_within), so the count is wildly inappropriate.

Completeness3/5

For the Discogs domain, the core entities (artist, label, master, release) and full-text search are present, plus semantic search inside records. However, there are gaps like user collections, wantlists, marketplace, and discogs-specific filters beyond format/country. The presence of many unrelated tools does not directly hurt domain coverage, but the Discogs surface is not exhaustive.
