Ask Pipeworx Beta

ask_pipeworx_beta
Read-onlyIdempotent

Beta version of ask_pipeworx: identical universal router (same 6,543 tools, same arguments, same response shape) with candidate routing improvements enabled live whenever one is under test. A candidate routing prompt (v9-eval-disjoint-examples) is live on every call here; ask_pipeworx serves it to a slice of traffic only. 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.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint, and non-destructive behavior, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuinely non-obvious context: a live candidate routing prompt on every call, results being compared against the stable router, and identical response shape. It stops short of noting rate limits or auth, so a 4 rather than 5.

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-loads the beta identity and experimental routing before the usage instruction, which is the right order. The closing reassurance ('Falls back to nothing — this IS a full working router') is slightly redundant with the opening but earns its keep by pre-empting a misread.

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?

With no output schema, the description compensates by stating the response shape and argument surface match ask_pipeworx. Annotations carry the safety profile. Coverage is nearly complete; only invocation-level details like throughput expectations are absent.

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 all seven aliases are documented in the schema itself. The description only claims 'same arguments' as ask_pipeworx and adds no alias or format detail beyond what the schema provides, so the baseline 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?

States a specific resource ('universal router') and its defining scope (beta version of ask_pipeworx) with the same tool count and argument surface. An agent can immediately tell it apart from ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_grounded without opening any schema.

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 routes the agent: 'Use it exactly like ask_pipeworx when you want the newest routing.' It names the alternative and the condition (newest vs stable) that selects between them, and reassures that there is no fallback gap to worry about.

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