Tool Definition Quality
Average 3.3/5 across 27 of 27 tools scored. Lowest: 1.6/5.
The server combines two distinct domains: data research/betting (Pipeworx, Polymarket) and dummy data CRUD (posts, products, users, etc.). Within the dummy data set, tools like 'post' and 'posts' or 'product' and 'products' are ambiguous, and there's no clear boundary between the two groups.
Naming conventions are highly inconsistent. Some tools use verb_noun with underscores ('ask_pipeworx', 'bet_research'), others are simple nouns ('comments', 'products'), and the memory tools use imperatives ('remember', 'forget') without a uniform pattern.
With 27 tools spanning unrelated functionalities, the server feels bloated. The dummy data tools alone could be a separate server, and the inclusion of memory tools adds further complexity without clear integration.
The dummy data tools are largely read-only (no create/update/delete for posts, products, etc.), leaving obvious gaps. The Pipeworx side is more complete, but the server as a whole lacks write operations and a coherent domain scope.
Available Tools
27 toolsask_pipeworxARead-onlyInspect
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 2,522 tools across 575 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".

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate the tool is read-only and non-destructive. The description adds behavioral details: it routes questions to appropriate sub-tools, fills arguments, and returns structured answers with citation URIs. This goes beyond the annotations, though it could mention potential limitations or failure modes.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is relatively long but well-structured, starting with a key preference directive and followed by supported domains, mechanism, and examples. Each sentence adds relevant information, though minor trimming could improve conciseness without losing clarity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has a single parameter, no output schema, and good annotations, the description is fully complete. It covers purpose, usage, behavior, and examples, leaving no ambiguity about when and how to invoke the tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema has 100% coverage with a single 'question' parameter described as natural language. The description adds value by providing many example questions, clarifying the scope and expected input format, which helps the agent formulate correct queries.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: to answer factual questions by routing to one of 2,520 specialized tools. It uses specific verbs ('ask') and resources ('pipeworx'), and distinguishes itself from web search and siblings by listing specific domains and emphasizing its structured citation output.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly tells the agent to prefer this tool over web search for factual questions, provides concrete examples of when to use it (e.g., 'current US unemployment rate'), and states it should be used even if web search could also answer. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use it or suggest sibling tools as alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
bet_researchARead-onlyInspect
Research a Polymarket bet by pulling the relevant Pipeworx data for it in one call. Pass a market slug ("will-bitcoin-hit-150k-by-june-30-2026"), a polymarket.com URL, or a question text. The tool resolves the market, classifies the bet (crypto price / Fed rate / geopolitical / sports / corporate / drug approval / election / other), fans out to the right packs (e.g. crypto+fred+gdelt for a BTC bet, fred+bls for a Fed bet, gdelt+acled+comtrade for Strait of Hormuz), and returns an evidence packet plus a simple market-vs-model comparison so the caller can see where the implied probability disagrees with the data. Use for "should I bet on X?", "what does the data say about this Polymarket market?", or "is there edge in this bet?". This is the core demo product — agents that get bet-relevant context here convert better than ones that have to discover the packs themselves.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| depth | No | quick = 2-3 evidence sources, thorough = full fan-out. Default thorough. | |
| market | Yes | Polymarket slug ("will-bitcoin-hit-150k-by-june-30-2026"), full URL ("https://polymarket.com/event/..."), or question text ("Will Bitcoin hit $150k by June 30?") |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already show readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, destructiveHint=false. The description adds significant behavioral context: it resolves the market, classifies the bet type, fans out to appropriate data packs, and returns an evidence packet with a market-vs-model comparison. No contradiction exists.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single paragraph that efficiently states purpose, input formats, behavioral details, and use cases. It is well-structured and front-loaded but could be slightly more concise by merging some clauses.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, the description adequately explains the return format ('evidence packet plus a simple market-vs-model comparison'). It covers the complex fan-out behavior, classification, and the tool's role in the product. All necessary context for an AI agent to select and invoke the tool correctly is present.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, with both parameters already documented in detail (market input formats, depth enum and defaults). The description adds minimal extra meaning beyond the schema, such as explaining the fan-out logic, but the schema already covers the parameter semantics sufficiently, so a baseline of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb-resource pair ('Research a Polymarket bet by pulling relevant Pipeworx data'). It distinguishes from siblings by being the dedicated bet research tool, with explicit use cases like 'should I bet on X?' and 'is there edge in this bet?'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states when to use the tool: for questions like 'should I bet on X?', 'what does the data say about this Polymarket market?', or 'is there edge in this bet?'. It positions itself as the core demo product but does not explicitly mention when not to use it or list alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
commentsCRead-onlyInspect
Paged comments.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| skip | No | ||
| limit | No |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already confirm read-only and non-destructive behavior. The description adds 'paged' but does not elaborate on pagination mechanics, rate limits, or output format. Given zero annotation burden, the description should provide more behavioral context.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is one sentence, which is concise but overly sparse. It is not verbose but lacks essential details; conciseness should not come at the cost of completeness.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given no output schema, 0% parameter coverage, and only two optional parameters, the description is severely incomplete. Agents cannot determine pagination behavior, output structure, or when to use the tool effectively.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%. The description fails to explain the parameters 'skip' and 'limit', which are critical for pagination. While parameter names are somewhat self-explanatory, the description should explicitly clarify their roles.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Paged comments', clearly identifying the resource as comments and hinting at pagination. It distinguishes itself from siblings like 'posts' by focusing on comments. However, it lacks specificity about the source or scope of comments.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. The description does not mention prerequisites, typical use cases, or when to choose this over other tools like 'posts' or 'todos'.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
compare_entitiesARead-onlyInspect
Compare 2–5 companies (or drugs) side by side in one call. Use when a user says "compare X and Y", "X vs Y", "how do X, Y, Z stack up", "which is bigger", or wants tables/rankings of revenue / net income / cash / debt across companies — or adverse events / approvals / trials across drugs. type="company": pulls revenue, net income, cash, long-term debt from SEC EDGAR/XBRL for tickers like AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL. type="drug": pulls adverse-event report counts (FAERS), FDA approval counts, active trial counts. Returns paired data + pipeworx:// citation URIs. Replaces 8–15 sequential agent calls.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | Entity type: "company" or "drug". | |
| values | Yes | For company: 2–5 tickers/CIKs (e.g., ["AAPL","MSFT"]). For drug: 2–5 names (e.g., ["ozempic","mounjaro"]). |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Beyond the annotations (readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, destructiveHint), the description adds behavioral context: for companies it pulls data from SEC EDGAR/XBRL (revenue, net income, cash, debt), for drugs it pulls from FAERS and FDA (adverse events, approvals, trials). It also discloses that output includes 'paired data + pipeworx:// citation URIs' and that the tool replaces multiple sequential calls. No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is concise yet comprehensive, using only five sentences. It is front-loaded with the core purpose ('Compare 2–5 companies or drugs side by side in one call') and efficiently covers usage, parameter details, and returned data. No redundancy or unnecessary information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's moderate complexity (two parameters, no output schema), the description provides sufficient context: it explains the two entity types, the expected input format, the data sources and fields returned for each type, and the return format (paired data + citation URIs). This allows an agent to invoke the tool correctly and understand the results.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema already has 100% description coverage for both parameters (type and values). The description adds value by explaining the domain-specific meaning: for company, values are tickers/CIKs and specific financial data is fetched; for drug, values are drug names and specific regulatory data is fetched. This context helps agents understand the expected input format and what data will be returned.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Compare 2–5 companies (or drugs) side by side in one call.' It specifies the verb (compare) and the resources (companies or drugs), and distinguishes from sibling tools like 'entity_profile' by focusing on side-by-side comparison rather than single entity. The mention of replacing 8-15 sequential calls further highlights its unique value.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides explicit usage examples such as 'compare X and Y', 'X vs Y', 'how do X, Y, Z stack up', and 'which is bigger', guiding the agent on when to invoke this tool. It also specifies the supported types (company, drug) and limits (2-5 items). However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it (e.g., single entity queries), which would improve clarity.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
discover_toolsARead-onlyInspect
Find tools by describing the data or task. Use when you need to browse, search, look up, or discover what tools exist for: SEC filings, financials, revenue, profit, FDA drugs, adverse events, FRED economic data, Census demographics, BLS jobs/unemployment/inflation, ATTOM real estate, ClinicalTrials, USPTO patents, weather, news, crypto, stocks. Returns the top-N most relevant tools with names + descriptions. Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Maximum number of tools to return (default 20, max 50) | |
| query | Yes | Natural language description of what you want to do (e.g., "analyze housing market trends", "look up FDA drug approvals", "find trade data between countries") |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. Description adds that it returns 'top-N most relevant tools with names + descriptions', which is useful context beyond annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Description is front-loaded with main purpose and examples. Slightly lengthy but every sentence adds value. Could be a bit tighter but still effective.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
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 most relevant tools with names + descriptions'). Includes usage examples and domains, making it complete for a discovery tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers both parameters (query, limit) with descriptions. Description reinforces query as natural language and hints at limit by saying 'top-N', adding value beyond schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Find tools by describing the data or task.' It lists many examples and distinguishes it from siblings since no other tool on this server does meta-discovery.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says 'Use when you need to browse, search, look up, or discover what tools exist for...' and instructs to 'Call this FIRST when you have many tools available', providing clear when-to-use and ordering guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
entity_profileARead-onlyInspect
Get everything about a company in one call. Use when a user asks "tell me about X", "give me a profile of Acme", "what do you know about Apple", "research Microsoft", "brief me on Tesla", or you'd otherwise need to call 10+ pack tools across SEC EDGAR, SEC XBRL, USPTO, news, and GLEIF. Returns recent SEC filings, latest revenue/net income/cash position fundamentals, USPTO patents matched by assignee, recent news mentions, and the LEI (legal entity identifier) — all with pipeworx:// citation URIs. Pass a ticker like "AAPL" or zero-padded CIK like "0000320193".
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | Entity type. Only "company" supported today; person/place coming soon. | |
| value | Yes | Ticker (e.g., "AAPL") or zero-padded CIK (e.g., "0000320193"). Names not supported — use resolve_entity first if you only have a name. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable behavioral context: lists the types of data returned (SEC filings, revenue, patents, etc.) and mentions citation URIs, going 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single substantial paragraph but is front-loaded with purpose and use cases. Every sentence adds value, though it could be slightly more structured for readability.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity of the tool (returns multiple data types) and lack of output schema, the description adequately explains what is returned and includes citation URIs. It covers necessary context for an agent to use the tool effectively.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, providing a baseline of 3. The description adds meaning by explaining that type only supports 'company' and that value can be a ticker or CIK, and clarifies that names are not supported, which is not in the schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description explicitly states the verb 'Get' and the resource 'everything about a company'. It provides clear use cases (e.g., 'tell me about X') and distinguishes itself from siblings by noting it avoids calling 10+ separate tools.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description gives explicit when-to-use scenarios ('when a user asks...') and when not to use (names not supported, use resolve_entity first). This provides clear guidance for tool selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
forgetADestructiveInspect
Delete a previously stored memory by key. Use when context is stale, the task is done, or you want to clear sensitive data the agent saved earlier. Pair with remember and recall.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| key | Yes | Memory key to delete |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true, so description's 'Delete' aligns. Adds context about clearing sensitive data but doesn't reveal additional behavioral traits beyond annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two succinct sentences with no wasted words. First states purpose, second provides usage guidance. Perfectly sized.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter, no output schema, and clear annotations, the description is fully adequate. Covers what it does and when to use it.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
pipeworx_feedbackAInspect
Tell the Pipeworx team something is broken, missing, or needs to exist. Use when a tool returns wrong/stale data (bug), when a tool you wish existed isn't in the catalog (feature/data_gap), or when something worked surprisingly well (praise). Describe the issue in terms of Pipeworx tools/packs — don't paste the end-user's prompt. The team reads digests daily and signal directly affects roadmap. Rate-limited to 5 per identifier per day. Free; doesn't count against your tool-call quota.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | bug = something broke or returned wrong data. feature = a new tool or capability you wish existed. data_gap = data Pipeworx does not currently expose. praise = positive note. other = anything else. | |
| context | No | Optional structured context: which tool, pack, or vertical this relates to. | |
| message | Yes | Your feedback in plain text. Be specific (which tool, what error, what data was missing). 1-2 sentences typical, 2000 chars max. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Discloses behavioral traits beyond annotations: rate-limited to 5 per identifier per day, free, doesn't count against quota. Annotations indicate non-read-only and non-destructive, and the description clarifies it sends feedback to a team, adding transparency.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is slightly lengthy but well-structured, front-loading purpose then providing detailed guidance. Every sentence adds value, though could be slightly more concise. Even so, it earns a 4 for clarity and efficiency.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple 3-parameter tool with no output schema, the description covers purpose, usage, behavior, rate limits, and parameter semantics fully. No gaps remain, making it complete for agent decision-making.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema has 100% coverage with descriptions for each parameter. The description adds practical context for the 'type' enum (e.g., 'bug = something broke or returned wrong data') and message constraints (be specific, 1-2 sentences, 2000 chars max), enhancing understanding beyond schema alone.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool is for giving feedback about things being broken, missing, or needing existence, using specific verbs like 'Tell'. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools (e.g., ask_pipeworx, discover_tools) which serve different purposes.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Provides explicit when-to-use scenarios for each type (bug, feature, data_gap, praise) and what not to do (don't paste end-user prompt). Also mentions rate limits and quota-free nature, guiding appropriate usage.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
polymarket_arbitrageARead-onlyInspect
Find arbitrage opportunities on Polymarket by checking for monotonicity violations across related markets. TWO MODES: (1) event — pass a single Polymarket event slug; walks that event's child markets and checks ordering within it. (2) topic — pass a topic / seed question (e.g. "Strait of Hormuz traffic returns to normal"); the tool searches across separate events for related markets, groups them, then checks monotonicity. Cross-event mode catches the cases where Polymarket lists each cutoff as its own event ("…by May 31" is event A, "…by Jun 30" is event B — single-event mode misses the May≤June rule). Returns ranked opportunities with suggested trade direction + reasoning.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| event | No | Single-event mode: Polymarket event slug (e.g. "when-will-bitcoin-hit-150k") or full URL. | |
| topic | No | Cross-event mode: a topic or seed question. Tool searches Polymarket for related markets across separate events and checks monotonicity across them. E.g. "Strait of Hormuz traffic returns to normal". |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Beyond annotations (readOnlyHint, openWorldHint), the description discloses that the tool searches for related markets, groups them, checks monotonicity, and returns ranked opportunities with suggested trade direction and reasoning. No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is approximately 120 words, well-structured with a clear first paragraph outlining purpose and modes, and a second paragraph detailing cross-event mode and output. Every sentence adds value, and the purpose is front-loaded.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the moderate complexity of the tool, the description adequately explains the two modes, their use cases, and the output format (ranked opportunities with trade direction). No output schema exists, but the description covers essential return information. It could mention optionality of parameters, but schema handles that.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description adds meaning beyond the input schema by mapping the two parameters (event and topic) to specific modes, providing examples for each, and explaining the logic behind cross-event mode. Schema coverage is 100%, so the description enhances rather than replaces it.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool finds arbitrage opportunities on Polymarket by checking monotonicity violations, specifying two distinct modes (event and topic). It differentiates from sibling tools like polymarket_edges by focusing on cross-event arbitrage detection.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly explains when to use each mode (event for single event slug, topic for cross-event searches) and provides context about why cross-event mode is needed for cases like 'by May 31' vs 'by Jun 30'. It does not compare to sibling tools but offers clear internal guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
polymarket_edgesARead-onlyInspect
Scan the highest-volume Polymarket markets and return the ones where Pipeworx data disagrees most with the market price. V1 covers crypto-price bets (lognormal model from FRED + live coinpaprika price): scans top markets, groups by asset, fetches each asset's price history ONCE, computes model probability per market, ranks by |edge|. Returns top N ranked by edge magnitude with suggested trade direction. Built for the "what should I bet on today" question — agents/users discover opportunities without paging through hundreds of markets by hand.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Top N edges to return after ranking. Default 10, max 25. | |
| window | No | Polymarket volume window to filter markets. Default 1wk. | |
| min_edge_pp | No | Minimum |edge| in percentage points to include (default 0.5). |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description provides detailed behavioral information: uses a lognormal model from FRED and live coinpaprika price, groups by asset, fetches price history once, and returns top N with suggested direction. Annotations (readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, destructiveHint) are consistent, and the description adds value beyond them. 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, well-structured paragraph. It starts with the core action, explains the model and process, and ends with the use case. Every sentence contributes meaningful information without redundancy or fluff.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
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 the return format (top N ranked by edge magnitude with suggested trade direction) and the internal process. It mentions data sources (FRED, coinpaprika). However, it could provide more details about the exact structure of the returned objects (e.g., market names, edge values). Still, it is fairly complete for the tool's complexity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds context for each parameter: limits (default 10, max 25), window (default 1wk), and min_edge_pp (default 0.5). It also explains their role within the overall process, providing semantic value beyond the schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: scanning high-volume Polymarket markets to find where Pipeworx data disagrees most with market price. It specifies the domain (crypto-price bets), the model (lognormal), and the output (ranked by edge magnitude with suggested trade direction). This distinguishes it from siblings like 'bet_research' and 'polymarket_arbitrage'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description indicates the tool is built for the 'what should I bet on today' question and mentions discovering opportunities. It explains the process but does not explicitly state when not to use it or suggest alternatives. The context is clear, but more explicit guidelines would improve this dimension.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already provide readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, but the description adds no behavioral context beyond that. It does not disclose what happens if the ID is invalid, rate limits, or authentication needs. Since annotations cover safety, the description could add, e.g., 'retrieves a single post by ID', but it does not.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely short (two words) but at the expense of necessary information. Conciseness should not result in ambiguity; a single sentence clarifying the action would improve without significant bloat.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with one parameter, no output schema, and annotations present, the description is still incomplete. It does not explain the behavior, return value, or error scenarios. An agent needs to infer too much from the name and schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The only parameter 'id' (number, required) has no schema description, and the tool description 'Single post.' does not explain its meaning or usage. With 0% schema description coverage, the description fails to compensate, leaving the agent uncertain what value to provide.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description 'Single post.' is a tautology of the tool name, lacking a verb to indicate action (retrieve, get, etc.). It does not specify what operation is performed on the post, leaving ambiguity whether it reads, creates, or deletes. The differentiation from sibling 'posts' is implied but not explicit.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives like 'posts' (plural) or 'comments'. Context suggests it retrieves a single post by ID, but this is not stated. No when-not-to-use or prerequisite information is provided.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | Entity type: "company" or "drug". | |
| value | Yes | For company: ticker (AAPL), CIK (0000320193), or name. For drug: brand or generic name (e.g., "ozempic", "metformin"). |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations indicate readOnly, openWorld, non-destructive. Description adds behavioral details: returns IDs plus pipeworx:// citation URIs, no mutation. 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Four sentences, front-loaded with purpose and examples. No fluff; every sentence adds value.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, description explains return format (IDs + citation URIs). Helps agent understand what to expect.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers both parameters (type, value) with descriptions. Description adds concrete value examples (ticker, CIK, drug names), surpassing schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states the tool resolves canonical identifiers for companies/drugs, with specific examples (CIK, ticker, RxCUI, LEI). Differentiates from siblings by noting it replaces 2-3 lookup calls.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says 'Use this BEFORE calling other tools that need official identifiers.' Also provides examples of when to use and what it returns.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate readOnly and non-destructive behavior, but the description adds nothing about pagination mechanics, response format, or other behavioral details.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Although concise at two words, the description is under-specified and fails to convey necessary information, making it ineffective.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a tool with two parameters and no output schema, the description is grossly inadequate, missing details on pagination, data content, and overall purpose.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With 0% schema description coverage, the description must explain parameters 'skip' and 'limit', but it offers no insight into their meaning or usage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description 'Paged todos' is vague; it does not specify the action (list, search, etc.) or distinguish it from sibling tools like 'posts' or 'products'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives, leaving the agent with no context for selection.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
userDRead-onlyInspect
Single user.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | Yes |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=true and openWorldHint=true, but the description adds no further behavioral context. It does not confirm the read-only nature or any additional traits, but also does not contradict 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely concise (two words) but at the expense of meaningful content. It is under-specified rather than effectively concise.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the single required parameter and no output schema, the description is severely incomplete. It does not explain return values, context, or how the tool fits into the broader system.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The description provides no information about the 'id' parameter. With 0% schema description coverage, the description fails to explain the parameter's meaning or usage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description 'Single user.' is extremely vague and lacks a verb. It does not specify what operation the tool performs (e.g., retrieve, fetch). The name 'user' and description do not distinguish it from siblings like 'users'.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. With siblings 'user' and 'users', there is no differentiation in usage context.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

| select | No |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true and destructiveHint=false, so no behavioral contradiction. However, description adds no extra context (e.g., pagination details, field selection behavior) beyond annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Extremely concise, but underspecified. The single sentence fails to convey essential details, making it insufficient despite brevity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With 3 parameters, no output schema, and limited annotations, the description is grossly incomplete. It omits parameter semantics, return format, and usage context.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 0%, and description does not explain any of the 3 parameters (skip, limit, select). No compensation for missing information.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description 'Paged users.' conveys it returns a list of users with pagination, which is clear but vague. It distinguishes from the singular 'user' sibling via pluralization, but misses explicit differentiation.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'user' or other listing endpoints. Missing context about filtering or ordering.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
validate_claimARead-onlyInspect
Fact-check, verify, validate, or confirm/refute a natural-language factual claim or statement against authoritative sources. Use when an agent needs to check whether something a user said is true ("Is it true that…?", "Was X really…?", "Verify the claim that…", "Validate this statement…"). v1 supports company-financial claims (revenue, net income, cash position for public US companies) via SEC EDGAR + XBRL. Returns a verdict (confirmed / approximately_correct / refuted / inconclusive / unsupported), extracted structured form, actual value with pipeworx:// citation, and percent delta. Replaces 4–6 sequential calls (NL parsing → entity resolution → data lookup → numeric comparison).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| claim | Yes | Natural-language factual claim, e.g., "Apple's FY2024 revenue was $400 billion" or "Microsoft made about $100B in profit last year". |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, and destructiveHint, so the bar is lower. The description adds rich behavioral context: it uses SEC EDGAR + XBRL, returns a verdict with citation, and explains it consolidates multiple steps. No contradictions with annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single paragraph that immediately states the action, then gives usage context, scope, return values, and efficiency. Every sentence adds value; it is well-structured and avoids unnecessary verbiage.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (one parameter, no output schema), the description is complete: it specifies input, output (verdict types, citation, delta), and behavior (sources, scope). It adequately informs the agent about what to expect without needing additional structured output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100% (parameter 'claim' has a good description). The tool description adds value by explaining the type of claims supported (company-financial) and providing examples, which goes beyond the schema's basic description.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: fact-checking/verifying natural-language claims. It includes a specific verb ('validate') and resource ('claim'), and distinguishes itself from siblings by mentioning it replaces 4-6 sequential calls, making its unique value clear.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly says 'Use when an agent needs to check whether something a user said is true', providing clear guidance. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or compare to alternatives, but it does mention the scope (company-financial claims) which implies limitations.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
