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.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint false. The description adds substantial behavioral context: data is from daily snapshots, bounded by 60-day TTL, decay from daily closes, snapshot gaps allowed. No contradictions.

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?

Description is detailed but well-structured: summary, args, response breakdown, limitations. Slightly lengthy but each sentence earns its place.

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?

Even without output schema, the description explains the full response structure (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates) and limitations (TTL, snapshot gaps). Complete for the complexity.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema covers 100% of parameters with descriptions. Description adds default values, clamp range for days, and valid window families, going beyond 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's purpose: 'Edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots.' It answers the specific question 'how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?' and distinguishes itself from siblings like polymarket_edges by focusing on historical persistence.

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 implies when to use: when needing historical persistence analysis. It contrasts with alternatives implicitly (e.g., polymarket_edges for current edges) but lacks explicit 'when not to use' guidance.

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
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have overlapping functionality, especially in the ask_pipeworx family (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded) and the polymarket group (bet_research, polymarket_edges, etc.). Descriptions acknowledge these overlaps, making it difficult for an agent to choose the correct tool without deep understanding.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are inconsistent: some tools use snake_case (ask_pipeworx, bet_research), others use camelCase or PascalCase (ai_visibility_check, generate_llms_txt, polymarketArbitrage?). Also, tools like 'list_subjects' and 'get_data' have no clear pattern with the rest.

Tool Count2/5

With 35 tools, the server feels overloaded and tries to cover too many distinct domains (data queries, prediction markets, subscriptions, memory, national statistics). This broad scope reduces coherence and makes the tool set harder to navigate.

Completeness3/5

The tool set covers a wide range of capabilities, from data retrieval to prediction market analysis and subscription management. However, the inclusion of Denmark-specific statistics tools (e.g., list_subjects, get_data) seems out of place and creates a niche gap for users interested in other national datasets.
