Ask Pipeworx — Grounded

ask_pipeworx_grounded
Read-onlyIdempotent

Hallucination-resistant answer mode for high-stakes reads. Same routing as ask_pipeworx — picks the right tool from 5,798 across 1517 sources, fills arguments, fetches the data — then EXTRACTS the answer using ONLY what the tool result contains. Returns {answer, evidence (verbatim quote), confidence, source, fetched_at, refusal_reason:null} on success, OR an explicit refusal {answer:null, refusal_reason:"not_in_source"|"no_tool_match"|"tool_error"|"data_truncated"|"llm_error"} when the data doesn't directly answer. Use whenever an answer will be quoted, cited, or acted on, and the agent must not invent facts (financial verdicts, legal claims, medical lookups, public statements). Costs one extra LLM call vs ask_pipeworx — prefer ask_pipeworx for casual lookups.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description goes well beyond the annotations by disclosing the exact refusal behavior, the structured success response shape, the possible refusal reasons, and the grounding constraint that only tool-result content is used. This gives the agent a precise behavioral model even without an output schema.

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?

The description is dense but front-loaded with the most important distinction, and every sentence carries useful operational information. It covers behavior, use cases, exclusion criteria, and cost tradeoff without unnecessary repetition.

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?

Given there is no output schema, the description fully compensates by specifying the success response fields and the refusal object variants. It also provides enough context about routing, cost, and when to choose the alternative, so an agent can invoke it correctly without ambiguity.

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?

The input schema already has 100% coverage, describing the 'question' parameter and its aliases in detail. The description adds little parameter-specific semantics, but the baseline of 3 is appropriate because no additional parameter guidance is necessary beyond what the schema already provides.

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 defines the tool as a hallucination-resistant, grounded answer mode for high-stakes reads, with a specific verb (answer) and resource (pipeworx data). It explicitly distinguishes itself from ask_pipeworx by emphasizing extraction only from tool results, making sibling differentiation clear.

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?

The description explicitly states when to use this tool: when answers will be quoted, cited, or acted on, and facts must not be invented. It also provides an explicit exclusion, saying to prefer ask_pipeworx for casual lookups, and notes the cost tradeoff of one extra LLM call.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes due to detailed descriptions and specific domains. However, there is potential for confusion between `ask_pipeworx` and `ask_pipeworx_grounded` (both route to data), and among the four polymarket tools, which could cause misselection if not read carefully.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming is inconsistent: while all use snake_case, they mix verbs (`ask_`, `list_`, `bet_`, `scan_`), noun phrases (`entity_profile`, `product_details`, `recent_alerts`), and imperative verbs (`forget`, `remember`, `recall`). No single pattern is followed throughout, making it harder to predict tool names.

Tool Count3/5

With 31 tools, the server covers multiple domains (energy, general data, betting, memory, subscriptions) which feels heavy for a single server named 'Octopus Energy'. While each tool has a role, the scope is overly broad, and many tools are tangential to energy, suggesting the number could be reduced or better scoped.

Completeness3/5

For the energy domain, tools are present but only cover listing products and tariffs, missing account management or switching. For the broader domains (data, prediction markets), coverage is decent but lacks some expected features like browsing all available data sources or user profile management. The set is not fully comprehensive for any single purpose.
