Deep Research

deep_research
Read-onlyIdempotent

ACCOUNT REQUIRED (free — sign in via GitHub at https://pipeworx.io/signup; depth:"thorough" needs a paid plan). If you are not signed in, use ask_pipeworx instead — it works on every tier. Grounded multi-source research across Pipeworx's 1517 STRUCTURED data sources (SEC filings, FRED/BLS economics, FDA, USPTO patents, markets, science, government records, etc.) in ONE call — this is NOT open-web search. Decomposes your question into focused facets, routes each to the right one of 5,798 tools IN PARALLEL, and returns a findings packet: verbatim evidence + confidence + source + fetched_at + a stable pipeworx:// citation per finding, with explicit gaps[] for facets the data couldn't answer (never invented). Best for broad/multi-part questions over structured data ("compare X and Y's regulatory + financial exposure", "research the filings + market picture for ACME"). For a single lookup use ask_pipeworx (one LLM call, not many). For BREAKING or colloquial CURRENT-NEWS / "what's the world saying about X" topics, prefer ask_pipeworx — it routes to live news APIs and the *-news-feeds packs; deep_research returns mostly empty gaps[] when the topic isn't in the structured catalog. Second-hop iteration: depth:"standard" re-angles unanswered gaps (gap recovery); depth:"thorough" additionally chases the best leads from the first pass — so multi-step questions resolve in one call. Every finding carries a hop field and a citation_uri — a resolvable pipeworx:// record URI, present only when the source emits one that resources/read can actually serve, so a citation you get back is always fetchable. "standard" and "thorough" also return contradictions[] flagging findings that disagree. Large records are semantically excerpted to the passages relevant to each facet (not head-truncated), so answers deep in a long filing/series aren't missed. Expect 15-60s (thorough with its follow-up + contradiction pass: up to ~90s).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
depthNoHow many facets to research in parallel: quick=3 (single hop), standard=3 (default; adds a gap-recovery hop that re-angles unanswered facets + a contradictions[] scan across findings), thorough=6 (paid; adds a full iterative hop that chases leads + recovers gaps, plus the contradictions[] scan).
questionYesThe research question, in natural language. Broad/multi-part is fine — decomposition is the point.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already show readOnly/openWorld/non-destructive, but the description adds account requirements, paid-tier behavior, not-open-web grounding, explicit gaps[] and contradictions[], citation fetchability, semantic excerpting, and latency. No contradiction 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

Front-loaded with auth and the alternative tool, then follows a logical flow through scope, process, output, use cases, and latency. Slightly longer than strictly necessary and repeats some depth details from the schema, but every major sentence adds operational value.

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?

For a tool with no output schema, the description covers invocation prerequisites, decomposition behavior, return content, gaps[], contradictions[], citation semantics, depth tradeoffs, and expected latency. An agent has enough context to select and invoke it correctly.

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 coverage is 100% and the schema already explains question and the depth enum, so the baseline applies. The description adds pricing/account context for depth and clarifies that question may be broad/multi-part, but it does not materially extend the parameter documentation.

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?

States a specific verb ('research'), a defined resource (1517 structured data sources), and the output (findings packet with citations and gaps[]). Explicitly distinguishes itself from open-web search and from ask_pipeworx for single lookups.

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?

Gives two explicit routing criteria: if not signed in, use ask_pipeworx; for a single lookup, use ask_pipeworx. Also states it is best for broad/multi-part questions, so an agent can decide when to invoke it over siblings.

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

A3.5/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tool clusters have unclear boundaries: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all route questions across the same 5,756-tool catalog, and ask_pipeworx_beta is explicitly identical to ask_pipeworx right now. The polymarket_* family also overlaps heavily (edges, arbitrage, fill_risk, kalshi_spread all surface tradeable discrepancies), and entity_profile/compare_entities/recent_changes all fan out to overlapping SEC/news/patent sources. Descriptions are detailed, but the set contains intentional near-duplicates that make selection genuinely ambiguous.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming follows no single convention: get_drivers/get_laps/get_meetings/get_sessions use verb_noun, polymarket_arbitrage/polymarket_edges are noun-phrase domain prefixes, pipeworx_feedback/pipeworx_trending use a vendor prefix, remember/recall/forget are bare verbs, and ask_pipeworx variants mix with action phrases like discover_tools, deep_research, and validate_claim. The inconsistency makes it harder to predict related tool names.

Tool Count2/5

35 tools is heavy, and the count is severely mismatched to the server name 'Openf1': only 4 of 35 tools (get_drivers, get_laps, get_meetings, get_sessions) are actually F1-related, while the other 31 are a general-purpose Pipeworx data/prediction-market platform. The number itself could be reasonable for a broad data hub, but for an F1 server it is bloated with unrelated functionality.

Completeness2/5

For the stated F1 domain, the surface is severely incomplete: it covers meetings, sessions, drivers, and laps but lacks race results, qualifying results, standings, pit stops, or constructor data — major gaps for any F1 use case. The Pipeworx side is far more complete (query, research, entities, verification, memory, subscriptions), but that completeness doesn't serve the server's apparent purpose.
