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.).

A4.8/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds behavioral context: returns a live-catalog-based bucket of examples, each with exact tool+argument shape, and explains the function as an onboarding aid.

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 detailed but front-loaded with common user queries. Every sentence provides value, though slightly verbose. Structured for quick comprehension.

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 simplicity (one optional param, no output schema) and rich annotations, the description fully covers purpose, usage, output nature, and when to invoke. No gaps.

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?

Schema coverage is 100% with one optional parameter described. The description enhances the schema by listing allowed values (finance, pharma, etc.) and the effect of omission (cross-category spread), adding 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 the tool returns category-bucketed example questions with tool and argument shapes, serving as an onboarding entry point. It distinguishes from siblings by specifying it's for exploring what Pipeworx can do and learning meta-tool calls.

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 instructs to use this tool 'FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do' and to 'learn how to call the meta-tools'. Provides alternatives (e.g., meta-tools) and clear usage patterns (no arguments for full spread or topic parameter for focus).

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 distinct purposes (e.g., current_observations vs. climate_daily), but several query tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, bet_research) overlap in function, all routing questions to a large tool catalog. This can confuse an agent about which to use.

Naming Consistency3/5

Names are snake_case but follow no consistent pattern: some are verb_noun (ask_pipeworx), some noun_adjective (climate_daily), others compound (ai_visibility_check). The mix is readable but not predictable.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is high for a server named 'Weather Gc Ca', which implies a focused weather service. Many tools are unrelated to weather (Polymarket, SEC, FDA, etc.), making the count inflated and mismatched to the server's apparent scope.

Completeness2/5

For weather, the server covers alerts, current observations, and climate records but lacks forecasts, radar, satellite imagery, and station listings. While the broader Pipeworx catalog is extensive, the weather-specific surface is incomplete for a dedicated weather tool.
