Polymarket Edge Tracker

polymarket_edge_tracker
Read-onlyIdempotent

Edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots. Answers "how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?" — a fresh wide edge and a 3-week-old wide edge are different trades (the latter is wide for a reason nobody is willing to take). Args: days (lookback, default 14, max 30), window (snapshot family, default "1wk"). RESPONSE: tracked[] = every opportunity in the LATEST snapshot with its full edge_pp_net time-series across prior snapshots, first_seen, trend (new | widening | stable | decaying) and decay_pp_per_day (both computed on |edge_pp_net| — the value itself is signed by trade direction, negative = SELL YES); expired[] = opportunities that appeared in earlier snapshots but are GONE from the latest (closed, resolved, or arbed away) with their lifespan_days — the median lifespan is your competition clock; snapshot_dates[] = which days actually have data (snapshots are written when polymarket_edges runs on a cache-miss, so gaps mean nobody scanned that day). LIMITS: history depth is bounded by the 60-day snapshot TTL and starts from when snapshotting was enabled; decay numbers come from daily closes of edge_pp_net (net of default slippage), not intraday.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description adds significant behavioral context beyond the annotations: decay computed on daily closes (not intraday), history bounded by 60-day TTL, and gaps indicate no scan. Annotations already indicate read-only and idempotent operations.

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?

The description is fairly long but well-structured with sections (ARGS, RESPONSE, LIMITS). Some redundancy in listing response fields, but overall each sentence adds 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?

Without an output schema, the description fully compensates by detailing the response structure: tracked[], expired[], snapshot_dates[]. It also covers limitations and edge cases, making the tool's behavior complete for an agent.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, and the description adds value by specifying defaults (days=14, window='1wk'), clamps (days 2-30), and explaining window as a snapshot family. This goes beyond the schema descriptions.

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's purpose: providing edge persistence and decay telemetry to answer 'how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?'. It distinguishes from the sibling polymarket_edges tool by being a derived analysis tool built from snapshots.

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?

The description gives clear context for when to use: when needing to differentiate between fresh and old edges. It provides default parameter values and clamping behavior. However, it does not explicitly contrast with siblings or state when not to use.

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

B3.3/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Many tools overlap in purpose, especially the Pipeworx data retrieval tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) and the Polymarket betting tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, etc.). The Shopify-specific tools are distinct, but the overall set is a confusing mix of domains, making it hard for an agent to select the right tool.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are inconsistent. Some tools use snake_case (ai_visibility_check, bet_research), others use underscores in various patterns (generate_llms_txt, scan_competitor_ai_presence). The Shopify tools use a shopify_ prefix, but the rest follow no uniform scheme, making it unpredictable.

Tool Count1/5

35 tools is far too many for a server named 'Shopify'. Only 5 tools are Shopify-specific; the rest are general-purpose data tools (Pipeworx, Polymarket, memory, etc.). This severe scope mismatch makes the tool count inappropriate and overwhelming for the intended domain.

Completeness2/5

As a Shopify server, the tools cover only basic read operations (list/get products, orders, customers), missing crucial write operations (create, update, delete) and other Shopify features (webhooks, inventory, etc.). The general tools cover many domains but are not integrated into a coherent Shopify workflow.
