Ask Pipeworx

ask_pipeworx
Read-onlyIdempotent

PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for questions about current or historical data: SEC filings, FDA drug data, FRED/BLS economic statistics, government records, USPTO patents, ATTOM real estate, weather, clinical trials, news, stocks, crypto, sports, academic papers, or anything requiring authoritative structured data with citations. Routes the question to the right one of 5,798 tools across 1517 verified sources, fills arguments, returns the structured answer with stable pipeworx:// citation URIs. Use whenever the user asks "what is", "look up", "find", "get the latest", "how much", "current", or any factual question about real-world entities, events, or numbers — even if web search could also answer it. Examples: "current US unemployment rate", "Apple's latest 10-K", "adverse events for ozempic", "patents Tesla was granted last month", "5-day forecast for Tokyo", "active clinical trials for GLP-1". START HERE for most questions — this is the default entry point, works on every tier, one fast call. Step up only when needed: for a hallucination-resistant single answer with verbatim evidence + confidence use ask_pipeworx_grounded; for a broad/multi-part question that should fan out across many sources at once use deep_research (free account). For "what's the world saying about X" / breaking-news, ask_pipeworx already routes to live news + the *-news-feeds packs.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already establish read-only, open-world, idempotent, and non-destructive behavior. The description adds useful behavioral context beyond those annotations: it is a routing tool that fills arguments on its own, selects among 5,798 tools across 1,517 sources, and returns stable pipeworx:// citation URIs. This is strong transparency for a tool of this type.

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 dense but efficient: it opens with the strongest directive, 'PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH', then covers scope, behavior, trigger phrases, examples, and explicit alternatives in two compact paragraphs. Every sentence contributes routing, usage, or behavioral information, and there is no filler or tautology.

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 this is a broad, high-complexity orchestrator tool with no output schema, the description is remarkably complete. It explains what the tool returns, the kinds of questions it handles, the sources it draws from, and how it relates to its main siblings. The agent has enough context to decide when to call it and what to expect back.

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?

Input schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds value beyond the schema by showing concrete natural-language query patterns and examples such as 'current US unemployment rate' and 'Apple's latest 10-K', and by clarifying that the tool fills arguments itself. This meaningfully enriches the agent's understanding of how to phrase the single required question parameter.

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's function: it routes factual questions to the right tool among thousands of verified sources and returns structured answers with citations. It is distinguished from web search and from sibling tools like ask_pipeworx_grounded, ask_pipeworx_beta, and deep_research, so the agent knows exactly what this specific tool does.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description gives explicit when-to-use guidance: 'PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH', 'Use whenever the user asks...', and 'START HERE for most questions'. It also names explicit alternatives and the conditions that select them, such as 'For questions requiring an auditable answer with verbatim sources, use ask_pipeworx_grounded' and 'for a broad/multi-part question... use deep_research'.

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