Pipeworx Trending

pipeworx_trending
Read-onlyIdempotent

What other AI agents are calling on Pipeworx right now. Returns the top tools, top packs, and total call volume over a recent window (24h, 7d, or 30d). Useful for: (1) discovering what data sources are hot for current events, (2) confirming a popular tool is the canonical choice before asking your own question, (3) seeing whether your use case aligns with what most agents need. Self-aggregating signal — derived from CF analytics-engine, no PII, just (pack, tool, count). Cached 5min-1h depending on window.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already provide readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable behavioral context: it is self-aggregating from CF analytics-engine, contains no PII, and is cached for 5min-1h depending on window. This fully discloses the tool's behavior beyond 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?

The description is concise: three sentences front-loading the main result, followed by use cases and data source details. Every sentence adds value with no redundancy. Ideal structure for an AI agent to quickly parse.

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?

Given the low complexity (1 optional parameter, no output schema, simple output), the description is fully complete. It covers what the tool returns, why it's useful, how data is sourced, and caching behavior. No gaps remain.

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?

The sole parameter 'window' has 100% schema coverage with enum values and a description. The description adds further semantics by explaining that shorter windows surface what's hot right now while longer windows show steady-state demand, providing meaning beyond the schema.

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 what the tool returns: top tools, top packs, and total call volume over a recent window. It specifies the resource (trending data on Pipeworx) and the action (returns), and it distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'discover_tools' by focusing on real-time trends.

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 explicitly lists three concrete use cases: discovering hot data sources, confirming canonical tool choice, and checking alignment with agent needs. While it doesn't explicitly state when not to use, the guidance is clear and actionable. A slight improvement would be to mention alternatives for non-trending queries.

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
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools serve overlapping purposes, such as the three ask_pipeworx variants (stable, beta, grounded) and the six Polymarket-specific tools. While detailed descriptions help distinguish them, an agent could still confuse bet_research with polymarket_edges or the ask_pipeworx versions.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming is highly inconsistent: verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, compare_entities), noun_noun (bet_research, entity_profile), single verbs (forget, recall, search), and adjective_noun (recent_alerts, deep_research). No clear pattern emerges across the set.

Tool Count3/5

33 tools is on the high side for a server named 'Smithsonian' that actually covers a broad range of data sources (SEC, FDA, Polymarket, npm, etc.). The number feels borderline heavy but is still manageable if the server's true purpose is general research.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers multiple domains (company financials, drugs, economics, prediction markets, npm, museum data) with reasonable depth. Minor gaps exist, such as lack of PyPI scanning or missing update/delete operations for some memory features, but core workflows are well-supported.
