Subscribe to Alerts

subscribe
Idempotent

Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id. Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account (anonymous + BYO cannot persist subscriptions). Supported types: "sec_8k" (8-K filings matching ticker + item codes — e.g. items:["5.02"] = officer change), "polymarket_edge" (Polymarket↔Kalshi cross-venue mispricings — params:{topic:"fed"}), "fred_series" (new FRED observations — params:{series_id:"UNRATE"}). Delivery channels: feed (always on — pull via recent_alerts or GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json), and optionally email (set delivery:{email:"you@x.com"}) or sms (delivery:{sms:"+15551234567"} — phone must be verified at /account first; 10/day cap).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeYesSubscription type.
paramsYesType-specific filter. sec_8k: {ticker:"AAPL", items?:["5.02","1.01"]}. polymarket_edge: {topic:"fed", min_spread_bps?:500}. fred_series: {series_id:"UNRATE"}. patent_grant: {applicant:"Apple Inc."}. clinical_trial: {sponsor?:"Pfizer", condition?:"lung cancer", phase?:"PHASE3"} (sponsor or condition required).
deliveryNoOptional delivery channels in addition to the always-on persistent feed. {email:"you@x.com"} sends a templated alert per fired event. {sms:"+15551234567"} sends an SMS per event — must match the verified phone on the caller's account (verify at https://pipeworx.io/account first; 10/day cap). {webhook:"https://..."} POSTs each event JSON to your endpoint, HMAC-signed — the response includes delivery.webhook_secret (whsec_…) ONCE; verify X-Pipeworx-Signature = sha256 HMAC of "<X-Pipeworx-Timestamp>.<raw body>". Auto-disabled after 10 consecutive failing runs.

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

The description enriches the annotations by disclosing authentication requirements (OAuth account, anonymous/BYO cannot persist), rate limits (10/day SMS cap), phone verification, and return value. It also clarifies that the feed is always on and how to access it, adding significant context beyond the 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 well-structured, with the main purpose front-loaded, followed by supported types and delivery channels. Every sentence adds critical detail, and despite its length, it is dense and free of fluff, effectively using examples and parentheticals.

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?

The tool has 3 parameters (2 required), nested objects, no output schema, and 5 enumerated types. The description covers return value, authentication, delivery options, per-type param guidance, and limitations, making it comprehensive for a create-subscription tool of this complexity.

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?

Although schema coverage is 100%, the description goes beyond the schema by providing concrete examples per type (e.g., items:['5.02'] = officer change), explaining the meaning of delivery channels, and noting restrictions like verified phone and webhook HMAC signing. This adds substantial value to parameter 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 uses a specific verb and resource: 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream.' It clearly states the returned value (subscription id), distinguishes it from siblings like list_subscriptions and unsubscribe, and enumerates supported subscription types, making the tool's purpose unambiguous.

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 provides clear context for when to use the tool: requires a Pipeworx OAuth account, and explicitly mentions alternative delivery mechanisms (feed can be pulled via recent_alerts or a URL). It does not explicitly name sibling tools for exclusion, but the prerequisites and delivery options give strong usage guidance.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Many tools have overlapping purposes, e.g., multiple ask_pipeworx variants, deep_research, and bet_research all serve data retrieval with subtle differences. The descriptions help distinguish them, but the sheer number of similar tools creates ambiguity.

Naming Consistency4/5

Tool names are mostly snake_case with a verb_noun pattern (e.g., resolve_entity, validate_claim). A few are nouns like 'readability' or 'text_stats', but the overall style is consistent and readable.

Tool Count2/5

With 33 tools, the server is overstuffed. The server name 'Textstats' suggests a narrow focus, but it covers diverse domains (Polymarket, SEC, memory, subscriptions), making it feel bloated and unfocused.

Completeness3/5

The tool set covers a wide range of data sources and actions, but there are notable gaps for a 'text stats' server—only two tools directly handle text analysis. Additionally, obvious operations like a simple stock quote tool are missing, relying on ask_pipeworx instead.
