Recent Alerts

recent_alerts
Read-onlyIdempotent

Pull fired events from your subscription feed. Returns the most recent alerts the evaluator has written to your persisted feed — each carries source, citation_uri (pipeworx:// when available), and the raw event payload. Filter by type (e.g. "sec_8k") and/or since (ISO timestamp). Set mark_read:true to flag returned events read so the next call only shows newer ones. Polls work fine; the same feed is also at GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json for scripts and dashboards.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeNoOptional — filter to one subscription type.
limitNoMax events to return (1-200, default 50).
sinceNoOptional ISO timestamp — return events fired_at >= this time.
mark_readNoFlag the returned events read in the same call (default false).
unread_onlyNoReturn only events where read_at is null (default false).

  1. Added

TDQS

A3.7/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

Description contradicts annotations: readOnlyHint=true but mark_read parameter modifies state by flagging events as read. This is a serious inconsistency that undermines transparency.

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?

Single paragraph, front-loaded with purpose. Every sentence adds value, but slight room for tighter phrasing.

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 details return fields (source, citation_uri, payload) and explains parameter behavior. Adequately covers complexity of 5 optional parameters.

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?

Adds meaning beyond schema by explaining filtering with type and since, and the side effect of mark_read. Schema coverage is 100%, but description enriches understanding.

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 pulls fired events from a subscription feed, using specific verbs and specifying the resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools like list_subscriptions which list subscriptions themselves.

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?

Provides clear context for use, including that polling works and an alternative REST endpoint. Lacks explicit comparison to all sibling tools but gives practical advice.

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.
