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.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds substantial behavioral context: data source (daily snapshots, 60-day TTL), response structure (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates), and decay computation details. 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.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is lengthy and detailed, which provides completeness but sacrifices conciseness. It has clear structure (purpose, response, limits) but some sentences are verbose. Could be tightened without losing information.

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?

No output schema exists, so the description thoroughly explains return values: tracked[] with time-series, trend, decay; expired[] with lifespan; snapshot_dates[]. It also covers limits and data sources, making the tool self-contained for an AI agent.

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 covers both parameters with descriptions. The description adds context: defaults (days=14, window='1wk'), clamp ranges (days 2-30), and explanation of window as snapshot family. This enriches schema meaning beyond baselines for 100% coverage.

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 it provides 'edge persistence and decay telemetry' from daily snapshots, answering how long an edge has existed. This verb+resource is specific and distinct from siblings like polymarket_edges (current edges) 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.

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

The description explains when to use this tool (to differentiate fresh vs. old edges) and implies it for decay analysis. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or name alternatives, missing some explicit guidance.

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

A4/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Several tools have overlapping purposes. ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded all route to the same 5,564 tools, differing only in grounding behavior. suggest and lyrics both look up music but in different ways; suggest is broader while lyrics is exact. The core tools are distinct, but the multiple pipeworx variants and music tools create ambiguity.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming is highly inconsistent. Most tools use snake_case (ask_pipeworx, entity_profile, compare_entities), but several use verb phrases (generate_llms_txt, scan_competitor_ai_presence) and some use short nouns (lyrics, suggest). There's no consistent verb_noun pattern; 'ask_pipeworx' variants mix imperative with domain words, and 'recall'/'remember' are verbs without objects.

Tool Count4/5

With 33 tools, the server covers a wide domain (company research, prediction markets, news, weather, lyrics, memory, subscriptions, etc.). While this is many tools, each has a specific purpose and the variety matches the stated 'universal router' / 'thousands of data sources' value prop. It could be trimmed slightly, but the count is justified by the breadth.

Completeness5/5

The tool surface is remarkably complete for its stated purpose: unstructured lookup (ask_pipeworx), grounded verification (ask_pipeworx_grounded), deep multi-source research (deep_research), entity profiles, comparisons, change feeds, arbitrage scanning, memory, subscriptions, and even feedback/governance tools. It covers all common patterns in data retrieval and has distinct tools for edge cases, making it hard to find obvious gaps.
