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.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations indicate idempotent, not read-only, not destructive. Description adds rich behavioral context: return value, delivery channel mechanics, SMS verification and cap, webhook auto-disable. No contradictions with annotations.

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?

Dense and well-structured, starting with purpose then requirements, examples, and delivery options. Every sentence adds value, though slightly lengthy; could be streamlined with bullet points but remains clear.

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?

Covers all key aspects: types, params, delivery, limitations, return value. No output schema, but description states returns subscription id, which is sufficient. Minor gap: no explicit response structure beyond id.

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 has 100% coverage, but description provides extensive additional meaning: type-specific examples, delivery channel formats, constraints, and requirements (e.g., verified phone). Adds significant value beyond 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?

Description clearly states 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id.' It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like list_subscriptions and unsubscribe by focusing on creation and providing specific resource details.

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?

Explicitly notes OAuth requirement, delivery channels, and rate limits. Implies when to use (for live event monitoring) but lacks explicit comparison to alternatives. Nonetheless, context is clear enough.

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
Disambiguation3/5

Several tools occupy adjacent roles: ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are currently identical in behavior, discover_tools and suggest_questions both serve discovery, and the astronomy plus Polymarket scanners have overlapping boundaries. The descriptions are unusually detailed and do differentiate most tools, but the number of near-neighbor tools still creates real selection risk.

Naming Consistency3/5

Names are uniformly snake_case and mostly descriptive, which helps, but the grammatical pattern is inconsistent: verb_noun names (compare_entities, resolve_entity) sit alongside bare nouns (catalogs, object) and bare verbs (remember, recall, forget). It is readable but not a predictable verb_noun convention.

Tool Count2/5

At 35 tools, the surface is well beyond what an agent can comfortably hold in mind. The set mixes a data-research core with one-off utilities like generate_llms_txt, scan_dependency, and AI-visibility auditing, making it feel like a grab-bag rather than a scoped server.

Completeness4/5

The core data-research workflow is strongly covered: plain and grounded Q&A, deep research, entity resolution, profiles, comparisons, claim validation, recent changes, tool discovery, memory, and subscription lifecycle all exist. Minor gaps remain, such as no subscription-update operation and no generic citation-fetch tool, but there are no serious dead ends.
