Deep Research

deep_research
Read-onlyIdempotent

ACCOUNT REQUIRED (free — sign in via GitHub at https://pipeworx.io/signup; depth:"thorough" needs a paid plan). If you are not signed in, use ask_pipeworx instead — it works on every tier. Grounded multi-source research across Pipeworx's 1517 STRUCTURED data sources (SEC filings, FRED/BLS economics, FDA, USPTO patents, markets, science, government records, etc.) in ONE call — this is NOT open-web search. Decomposes your question into focused facets, routes each to the right one of 5,798 tools IN PARALLEL, and returns a findings packet: verbatim evidence + confidence + source + fetched_at + a stable pipeworx:// citation per finding, with explicit gaps[] for facets the data couldn't answer (never invented). Best for broad/multi-part questions over structured data ("compare X and Y's regulatory + financial exposure", "research the filings + market picture for ACME"). For a single lookup use ask_pipeworx (one LLM call, not many). For BREAKING or colloquial CURRENT-NEWS / "what's the world saying about X" topics, prefer ask_pipeworx — it routes to live news APIs and the *-news-feeds packs; deep_research returns mostly empty gaps[] when the topic isn't in the structured catalog. Second-hop iteration: depth:"standard" re-angles unanswered gaps (gap recovery); depth:"thorough" additionally chases the best leads from the first pass — so multi-step questions resolve in one call. Every finding carries a hop field and a citation_uri — a resolvable pipeworx:// record URI, present only when the source emits one that resources/read can actually serve, so a citation you get back is always fetchable. "standard" and "thorough" also return contradictions[] flagging findings that disagree. Large records are semantically excerpted to the passages relevant to each facet (not head-truncated), so answers deep in a long filing/series aren't missed. Expect 15-60s (thorough with its follow-up + contradiction pass: up to ~90s).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
depthNoHow many facets to research in parallel: quick=3 (single hop), standard=3 (default; adds a gap-recovery hop that re-angles unanswered facets + a contradictions[] scan across findings), thorough=6 (paid; adds a full iterative hop that chases leads + recovers gaps, plus the contradictions[] scan).
questionYesThe research question, in natural language. Broad/multi-part is fine — decomposition is the point.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Even with annotations declaring readOnly/openWorld/idempotent, the description adds substantial behavioral detail: parallel decomposition, gap recovery hops, contradictions[] scan, semantic excerpting of large records, stable pipeworx:// citations that are always fetchable, never-invented gaps[], and timing expectations. This goes well beyond what annotations alone convey.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is information-dense and front-loads the critical account requirement, but it is long and somewhat sprawling, mixing usage guidance, return format, depth semantics, citation guarantees, and performance expectations into one dense paragraph. The parenthetical asides and long list of data-source examples add useful context but hurt scannability.

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 complexity (multi-hop research, multiple depth modes, citation semantics, gap recovery, contradictions), this description is remarkably complete. It covers auth, alternatives, return packet contents, latency, citation resolvability, semantic excerpting behavior, and depth-mode tradeoffs. No output schema exists, so the description carries the full burden of explaining return values, which it handles thoroughly.

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% and the depth parameter enum has detailed descriptions in the schema. The description adds value by explaining the behavioral consequences of each depth level (single hop vs gap-recovery vs iterative lead-chasing) and what the returned findings packet contains, which is more than the schema says.

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 states a specific verb ('research'), a precise resource (Pipeworx's 1517 structured data sources via 5,798 tools), and explicitly contrasts with open-web search. It distinguishes itself from siblings like ask_pipeworx by positioning itself as the multi-source, multi-part research tool.

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?

The description gives explicit when-to-use guidance ('Best for broad/multi-part questions over structured data'), explicit when-not-to-use guidance (single lookup → ask_pipeworx; breaking news/open-web topics → ask_pipeworx), and names alternatives directly. It also covers account tier requirements and depth-level behavior.

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

A3.5/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

The five WooCommerce tools are clearly distinct, but the remaining 31 Pipeworx tools contain several overlapping query/research entry points (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, validate_claim) that an agent would struggle to tell apart without deep inspection. The context of the server also misleads: an agent expecting WooCommerce tools must navigate a much larger unrelated research toolkit.

Naming Consistency2/5

The woo_* tools follow a clean verb_noun pattern, but the bulk of the set uses wildly mixed conventions: bare verbs (forget, recall, subscribe), noun phrases (entity_profile, recent_changes), generic names (ask_pipeworx, discover_tools), and vendor-prefixed variants (pipeworx_trending, polymarket_edges). There is no single naming system across the server.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is far too many for a server whose apparent purpose is WooCommerce store access; only 5 tools actually relate to WooCommerce. The remaining 31 are an unrelated general-purpose data research suite, making the toolkit feel bloated and mis-scoped.

Completeness1/5

The WooCommerce surface is severely incomplete: it only supports read operations (get/list for products, orders, customers). There are no create, update, delete, refund, or other write operations, so an agent cannot actually manage a store. The unrelated Pipeworx tools do not fill these gaps.
