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".

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Discloses beyond annotations: uses BGE-base-en embeddings, cosine similarity, 500-char overlapping windows, 200K char cap with truncation flag, and every passage includes offset for verification.

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?

Three tightly packed sentences: core purpose, usage context, pairing guidance, and technical details. Every sentence adds distinct value, no redundancy.

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?

Covers algorithm, limitations, output features (offsets, scores), pairing, and truncation behavior. No output schema, but description sufficiently explains return content.

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?

Schema has 100% coverage with descriptions, but the description adds extra context: default and range (1-20) for limit, example queries, and hints at return format (passages with offsets and scores).

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 performs semantic search inside a fetched record, using examples like SEC 10-K or articles, and distinguishes it from siblings like ask_pipeworx_grounded by specifying pairing usage.

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?

Explicitly states when to use (when record is too large for prompt) and when not to (saves context), and mentions pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded for grounding over passages, differentiating from that sibling.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools have overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are nearly identical; the Polymarket betting tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, etc.) also overlap. The server name suggests a German dictionary, but most tools are unrelated, causing confusion about the set's focus.

Naming Consistency2/5

Tool names lack a consistent pattern: some use verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities), some noun_noun (ai_visibility_check, dwds_frequency), some single words (forget, lemma), and some are acronyms (kwic). This mixed convention makes prediction of tool names difficult.

Tool Count3/5

At 36 tools, the set is large but not extreme. However, it attempts to cover too many domains (German language, prediction markets, AI visibility, npm packages, etc.), making it feel bloated and unfocused for a server named 'Dwds'.

Completeness2/5

For the German dictionary focus implied by the server name, tools are minimal (dwfs_frequency, lemma, snippet) and two are retired. For the broader data platform, there are gaps like no dedicated SEC filing search tool, relying on generic ask_pipeworx. The set feels incomplete for both intended purposes.
