Search Within a Source

search_within
Read-onlyIdempotent

Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record. Pass the text you already pulled (e.g. a SEC 10-K body, an article, a long tool result) plus a natural-language query; get back the top-N passages with character offsets and similarity scores. Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt — search_within saves context, returns only the passages that matter, and every passage carries an offset so the agent can verify a verbatim quote. Pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded: fetch with the gateway, ground over the relevant passages instead of the whole document. BGE-base-en embeddings + cosine over 500-char overlapping windows; cap is 200K chars (longer inputs are truncated and flagged).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
textYesThe document text to search inside (max ~200K chars).
limitNoMax passages to return (1-20, default 5).
queryYesNatural-language query — what passages do you want? E.g. "supply-chain risk", "fiscal year 2024 revenue", "drug interactions with warfarin".

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. Description adds rich behavioral context: truncation at 200K chars, embedding model (BGE-base-en), cosine similarity, 500-char overlapping windows, and that longer inputs are flagged. 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.

Conciseness5/5

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

Single paragraph of ~120 words, well-structured: purpose, usage, pairing, technical details. Every sentence adds value; no fluff.

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?

No output schema, but description explains return values (top-N passages with character offsets and similarity scores). Mentions grounding and pairwise with ask_pipeworx_grounded. Lacks details on similarity score range or pagination, but sufficiently complete for the tool's complexity.

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 coverage is 100% with descriptions. Description adds context: 'max ~200K chars' for text, natural-language query with examples for query, and default/max values for limit. This goes beyond schema, so baseline 3 becomes 4.

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 performs semantic search inside a fetched record, with specific examples (SEC 10-K, article, tool result) and return values (passages with offsets and similarity scores). It distinguishes from siblings by mentioning pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded and contrasting with fetching via the gateway.

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?

Explicitly says 'Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt' and mentions saving context. It does not explicitly state when not to use, but the condition is clear. Also suggests pairing with ask_pipeworx_grounded.

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

While many tools target distinct resources, there is notable overlap between ask_pipeworx variants (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded) and between discovery tools (discover_tools vs suggest_questions). The Polymarket prediction tools also have blurred boundaries (polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker, polymarket_arbitrage). This overlap can confuse an agent trying to select the right tool.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names consistently use snake_case and are mostly descriptive. However, naming patterns vary: some start with verbs (list_subscriptions, validate_claim), others with nouns (ask_pipeworx, bet_research). The memory tools use single-word imperatives (remember, recall, forget), which differ from the multi-word pattern. Overall, it's readable but not rigidly consistent.

Tool Count3/5

34 tools is on the high side for a single server, but the breadth of domains (data access, prediction markets, biotech, subscriptions) justifies the count. Some tools feel peripheral (gene_annotations, generate_llms_txt) and could be split off, making the set slightly bloated for the core purpose of business/financial data and prediction markets.

Completeness4/5

The tool surface covers a wide range of data sources (SEC, FDA, FRED, patents, news) and prediction market analysis comprehensively. However, there are minor gaps: no direct web search tool, no tool for fetching a specific SEC filing by accession (though ask_pipeworx may cover it). The set supports most core workflows without dead ends.
