What Can I Ask Pipeworx?

suggest_questions
Read-onlyIdempotent

What can I ask Pipeworx? / what is Pipeworx good for? / what can you do? / give me ideas / show me examples / getting started / what data do you have? — the onboarding entry point for an agent that just connected and wants to know what is worth asking. Returns category-bucketed example questions (company financials, drugs & clinical trials, economics, real estate, prediction markets, weather, government & patents, science & academia, news) — each with the exact tool + argument shape that answers it, drawn from the live catalog of thousands of tools. Call with no arguments for the full spread, or pass topic (e.g. "finance", "pharma", "betting") to focus. Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do for you, or to learn how to call the meta-tools (ask_pipeworx, entity_profile, compare_entities, etc.).

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, open world, non-destructive. Description adds valuable context: returns example questions with tool+argument shapes from a live catalog, and behavior for parameter omission. 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?

One dense sentence front-loads the core purpose and includes many aliases and use cases. Could be more concise or split into shorter sentences, but packs information efficiently.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description clearly explains the return format: category-bucketed example questions with tool+argument shapes. For a simple one-parameter tool, this is complete.

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% with a description of the topic parameter. Description adds minimal extra value by listing possible values and behavior when omitted, but mostly restates schema info.

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 the tool serves as an onboarding entry point, returning category-bucketed example questions with exact tool and argument shapes. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like ask_pipeworx by being specifically for suggesting questions.

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 to use this FIRST when unfamiliar with Pipeworx or to learn meta-tools. Provides guidance on calling with no arguments for full spread or with a topic to focus. Lacks explicit exclusion scenarios but context is clear.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools have overlapping or redundant purposes, most notably ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta (currently identical), and the cluster of Polymarket tools (polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, bet_research) which all surface trading opportunities. While the lengthy descriptions help, an agent could easily select the wrong tool.

Naming Consistency4/5

All tool names use snake_case with a readable verb/noun structure, and there are no casing inconsistencies. However, the verb-first vs noun-first pattern is not uniformly applied (e.g., ask_pipeworx vs sarb_timeseries vs polymarket_edge_tracker), so it's mostly consistent with minor deviations.

Tool Count2/5

At 36 tools, the set is large and exceeds the 25-tool threshold; the broad scope justifies some volume but the presence of duplicate/overlapping tools (ask_pipeworx_beta, multiple Polymarket scanners) makes the count feel inflated.

Completeness4/5

The set covers a wide domain — SARB data, company research, prediction markets, AI visibility, memory, and subscriptions — with a good lifecycle for most features. Minor gaps exist (no subscription update, no bulk data export), but the core workflows are well covered.
