Ask Pipeworx Beta

ask_pipeworx_beta
Read-onlyIdempotent

Beta version of ask_pipeworx: identical universal router (same 6,747 tools, same arguments, same response shape) with candidate routing improvements enabled live whenever one is under test. No candidate is active right now (the last was retired on outcome evidence 2026-07-26), so this currently matches ask_pipeworx exactly. Use it exactly like ask_pipeworx when you want the newest routing; results are compared against the stable router to decide what merges. Falls back to nothing — this IS a full working router, just the experimental edge.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover safety (readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive, openWorld). The description adds important behavioral context beyond that: it is a beta router with candidate improvements enabled live when under test, currently no candidate is active, and it falls back to nothing because it is a full working router. It does not discuss auth, rate limits, or exact response content.

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?

The description is front-loaded with the beta relationship and current status, then usage guidance and fallback behavior. It is efficient, but contains some redundancy (repeating that it currently matches ask_pipeworx exactly) and a specific retired-date parenthetical that could be trimmed.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a read-only, open-world query router with no output schema, the description covers purpose, usage, beta status, and fallback behavior. It does not explain the response shape beyond saying it is identical to ask_pipeworx, which leaves a minor gap for an agent that lacks that sibling's output details.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so all 9 parameters and aliases are already documented in the schema. The description only says 'same arguments' and adds no parameter-specific meaning, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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 states a specific verb and resource relationship: 'Beta version of ask_pipeworx: identical universal router'. It explicitly distinguishes itself from the sibling ask_pipeworx by being the experimental edge, so an agent can tell them apart without opening the schema.

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?

It gives clear context for use: 'Use it exactly like ask_pipeworx when you want the newest routing'. It also explains the current status (no candidate active, matches ask_pipeworx exactly) and that results are compared against the stable router, but does not explicitly say when to prefer the stable sibling instead.

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