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.).

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds that it returns category-bucketed example questions drawn from a live catalog, which is useful extra context beyond the safe-read nature.

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 a single paragraph but well-organized with parentheses and clear lists. It is informative but slightly verbose; could be split into shorter sentences without losing meaning.

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 tool's simple nature (1 optional parameter, no output schema), the description fully explains purpose, usage, output format, and relationship to other tools. It is complete for an onboarding tool with good annotation coverage.

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% with the 'topic' parameter described. The description repeats the allowed values and explains behavior when omitted, adding semantic value beyond the schema by telling the agent when and how to use the parameter.

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 it is an onboarding entry point for what to ask Pipeworx, returning categorized example questions. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like 'ask_pipeworx' and 'discover_tools' by being the first-use tool to learn capabilities.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do for you'. Also explains optional topic parameter usage and that omitting it gives a full spread. Provides clear when-to and when-not-to context.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The set mixes several overlapping families: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are described as currently identical, while ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, bet_research, and validate_claim all route to the same underlying data sources. Polymarket tools (arbitrage, edges, edge_tracker, fill_risk, spread) also blur together; only the four lookup_* VirusTotal functions are cleanly distinct.

Naming Consistency3/5

Names are uniformly snake_case with a few consistent families (lookup_domain/file/ip/url, ask_pipeworx_*, polymarket_*), which helps. However, the set mixes imperative verbs (remember, forget, subscribe, validate_claim), noun phrases (entity_profile, deep_research, recent_alerts), and inconsistent prefixes, so no single naming convention holds across the server.

Tool Count2/5

35 tools is too many for the apparent purpose, especially for a server named Virustotal. The bulk of the tools address unrelated Pipeworx research, memory, and prediction-market functions, so the count does not reflect the server's advertised domain.

Completeness1/5

For a VirusTotal server, only four lookup tools exist and there is no way to submit a URL/file, create a scan, retrieve analysis details, or explore relationships—core VirusTotal operations are missing. Scoped broadly, the unrelated Pipeworx tools are extensive, but they do not fill the gaps in the advertised domain. The surface is severely incomplete relative to the server name.
