Tool Definition Quality
Average 4.5/5 across 23 of 23 tools scored. Lowest: 3.8/5.
The tool set mixes three Yu-Gi-Oh! card lookup tools with twenty unrelated research and AI tools from Pipeworx. The server's name suggests a focused domain, but the tools serve completely different purposes, creating extreme ambiguity about what the server is for.
Tool names use mixed conventions: some are verb_noun (search_cards, get_card), some are compound phrases (ai_visibility_check, polymarket_kalshi_spread), and some are generic single words (forget, recall). No consistent pattern exists across the set.
23 tools is high for a server that appears to focus on Yu-Gi-Oh! cards (only 3 tools). The majority of tools are for general data research, but the count is still too small to be a comprehensive research server, making the scope feel scattered and inappropriate.
The Yu-Gi-Oh! domain is severely incomplete (only search, get, random; no update, delete, or management tools). The research tools cover many areas but lack depth (e.g., only one SEC filing tool, no specific economic indicators). The set leaves large gaps for both intended purposes.
Available Tools
23 toolsai_visibility_checkARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Probe one or more LLMs for what they know about a business / brand / product / topic and score visibility (0-100) per model. Default model is Workers AI Llama-3.3-70b (free); pass _apiKey to also probe Anthropic (BYO key — you pay Anthropic directly for those calls). Returns per-model {score, confidence, signals, raw_response} + a combined view. Useful for AI-marketing audits, pre-launch brand checks, competitive monitoring.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| entity | Yes | The thing to ask about. Brand/business name, product name, person, or topic. E.g. "Pipeworx", "OpenInvoice", "Acme Corp pricing". | |
| models | No | Which models to probe. Supported: "workers-ai" (free default), "anthropic" (requires _apiKey). Omit for just workers-ai. | |
| _apiKey | No | Optional Anthropic API key (sk-ant-...) — only needed if "anthropic" is in models. Passed straight through to api.anthropic.com. | |
| context | No | Optional: a phrase locating the entity (e.g. "Boston restaurant", "B2B SaaS"). Helps disambiguate common names. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint. The description adds valuable behavioral context: cost implications for Anthropic ('you pay Anthropic directly'), and output structure (per-model fields plus combined view). 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, well-structured paragraph with the main purpose front-loaded, followed by default behavior, optional key usage, output summary, and use cases. Every sentence adds value with no superfluous text.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool has 4 parameters, full schema coverage, and no output schema, the description adequately explains the output format and primary use cases. Minor missing details like error handling or response size are not critical for core functionality.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for all 4 parameters. The description adds semantic value by explaining the default model behavior, when to use _apiKey, and how the 'context' parameter aids disambiguation. This goes beyond the schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: probing LLMs for knowledge about a brand/product and scoring visibility. It includes a specific verb ('probe'), resource ('LLMs'), and output ('score 0-100'). The description effectively distinguishes this tool from siblings like 'scan_competitor_ai_presence' by focusing on visibility scoring rather than general AI presence scanning.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides clear usage context: AI-marketing audits, pre-launch brand checks, and competitive monitoring. It explains the default model and how to opt into Anthropic with a BYO key. However, it does not explicitly state when NOT to use this tool or mention alternatives among siblings.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
ask_pipeworxARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for questions about current or historical data: SEC filings, FDA drug data, FRED/BLS economic statistics, government records, USPTO patents, ATTOM real estate, weather, clinical trials, news, stocks, crypto, sports, academic papers, or anything requiring authoritative structured data with citations. Routes the question to the right one of 3,538 tools across 815 verified sources, fills arguments, returns the structured answer with stable pipeworx:// citation URIs. Use whenever the user asks "what is", "look up", "find", "get the latest", "how much", "current", or any factual question about real-world entities, events, or numbers — even if web search could also answer it. Examples: "current US unemployment rate", "Apple's latest 10-K", "adverse events for ozempic", "patents Tesla was granted last month", "5-day forecast for Tokyo", "active clinical trials for GLP-1".
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| q | No | Alias for question. | |
| text | No | Alias for question. | |
| input | No | Alias for question. | |
| query | No | Alias for question. | |
| prompt | No | Alias for question. | |
| question | Yes | Your question or request in natural language. Accepts query, q, prompt, text, input as aliases. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Despite rich annotations (readOnly, openWorld, idempotent), the description adds meaningful context: it routes questions to 3,538 tools across 815 sources, fills arguments, and returns structured answers with citation URIs. This internal behavior is not implied by annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is front-loaded with a strong usage directive, well-organized with domain list, mechanism, and examples. While slightly lengthy, every sentence adds value; could be marginally tighter but is effective.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
The description explains the tool's orchestration role and output format (structured answer with citation URIs) but does not detail the exact return structure or error behavior. Given the complexity and lack of output schema, some gaps remain, though the context is adequate for basic usage.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description does not add substantive meaning beyond schema for parameters; it merely reiterates the question parameter's role via examples. No extra details about parameter constraints or format.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: routing factual questions to a vast set of verified sources and returning structured answers with citations. It explicitly distinguishes itself from web search and lists specific domains (SEC filings, FDA drugs, etc.), making the purpose unmistakable.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides explicit guidance: 'PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH' for factual questions about real-world entities, events, or numbers. It lists example queries and specifies trigger phrases, effectively telling the agent when to use this tool over alternatives.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
bet_researchARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Research a Polymarket bet by pulling the relevant Pipeworx data for it in one call. Pass a market slug ("will-bitcoin-hit-150k-by-june-30-2026"), a polymarket.com URL, or a question text. The tool resolves the market, classifies the bet, fans out to category-specific data packs in parallel, and returns an evidence packet + simple market-vs-model comparison. Use for "should I bet on X", "what does the data say about Y", or "is there edge in Z". CLASSIFIERS: crypto_price, fed_rate, geopolitical, sports, sports_championship, drug_approval, election_candidate, tech_launch, space_launch, corporate, corporate_earnings, corporate_event, public_figure_speech, weather, other. FAN-OUT EXAMPLES: BTC bet → coingecko + fred + gdelt+gnews; Fed bet → fred (DFEDTARU + EFFR + CPIAUCSL) + kalshi_macro (KXFED implied probs) + recent_fed_actions (federal-register rules, last 365d); Hormuz bet → imf_portwatch + airspace + gdelt; Yankees WS → mlb_stats_standings + parent_event partition + news; hottest-year bet → climate_projection_nyc + gistemp_latest (NASA global anomaly, rank since 1880) + news; NVDA-vs-AAPL → finnhub get_quote + edgar shares-outstanding (derived market cap) + edgar filings + news. RESPONSE SHAPES: result.market carries best_bid/best_ask/spread_pp/liquidity/price_change_1h/1d/1w; result.analysis carries model_probability/edge_pp/kelly_fraction_half when a closed-form model fires PLUS a 24h-move warning ("Market moved X.Xpp in 24h, comparable to model edge — your edge may already be priced in") when relevant; result.evidence is keyed by source. RESOLVER CONTRACT: result.market_match_confidence ∈ {high, medium, low, none}, market_match_score (0-1 token-overlap), market_match_alternatives[] (other candidate markets the resolver considered), and suggestions[] (explicit re-query hints when the match is fuzzy) — ALWAYS inspect these before trusting the analysis block, because medium/low matches can still surface other fields. PARENT_EVENT EXTRACTOR: when the bet is one leg of a partition (Yankees WS, Romania election), result.parent_event{matched_candidate, top_legs_by_price[], partition_size, placeholders_filtered} gives you the peer prices in one place — that's the headline for elections/championships. NEWS FIELDS: news entries carry _fallback_attempted / _fallback_failed_reason / retry_after_sec when GDELT 429s and GNews backfill ran or failed. SAFETY: low-confidence resolutions short-circuit with status:"low_confidence_match" and suppress analysis fields so agents can't accidentally size on phantom matches. Closed/dead markets that ARE still indexed by Polymarket (yes_price≈0, no volume, no liquidity) return status:"market_closed_or_inactive" and skip fan-out. In practice resolved markets are usually de-indexed and instead surface via the low_confidence_match path above — both routes are BLOCKING, just different mechanisms. Wide-spread markets (>10pp) carry tradeability:"illiquid_wide_spread" + an explanatory note.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| depth | No | quick = 2-3 evidence sources, thorough = full fan-out. Default thorough. | |
| market | Yes | Polymarket slug ("will-bitcoin-hit-150k-by-june-30-2026"), full URL ("https://polymarket.com/event/..."), or question text ("Will Bitcoin hit $150k by June 30?") | |
| include_raw | No | Default false. When false (recommended), FRED/FDA/GDELT/Federal-Register evidence is summarized to the few fields agents actually use — keeps responses under ~20KB. Pass true to get full upstream payloads (50KB-500KB) when you need to recompute deltas, cite specific observations, or post-process. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations declare readOnlyHint true and destructiveHint false. The description adds extensive behavioral details: resolver contract with match confidence, parent event extraction, news error handling, safety mechanisms for low-confidence/closed/illiquid markets. This goes well beyond annotations, providing transparency without contradiction.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is very long and verbose, with multiple paragraphs of detailed examples and response shapes. While informative, it lacks conciseness and front-loading. The length could be reduced, and a structured format (e.g., bullets) would improve scanability.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (3 params, no output schema) and the need to describe return structures and edge cases, the description is extremely thorough. It covers resolution, fan-out, safety, and error handling, compensating for lack of output schema.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for all three parameters. The description adds minor context (e.g., include_raw effect on response size) but does not significantly enhance understanding beyond the schema. Baseline 3 applies.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the verb and resource ('Research a Polymarket bet by pulling the relevant Pipeworx data for it in one call') and provides usage examples. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from sibling tools like polymarket_edges or polymarket_arbitrage, which may have overlapping functionality.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description gives use cases such as 'should I bet on X' and 'is there edge in Z', which imply when to use it. However, it lacks explicit guidance on when not to use or how it compares to alternatives like polymarket_edges for edge analysis. No alternatives are mentioned.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
compare_entitiesARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
"Compare X and Y" / "X vs Y" / "X versus Y" / "which is bigger / better / larger / more profitable" / "rank these companies" / "head to head" — side-by-side comparison of 2–5 companies or drugs in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities. type="company" pulls LATEST 10-K revenue + net income + cash + long-term debt from SEC EDGAR/XBRL (off-calendar fiscal years handled correctly — AAPL Sep, NVDA Jan, etc.). type="drug" pulls FAERS adverse-event counts, FDA approval counts, active trial counts. Results sorted by primary metric so "largest" / "most" / "biggest" reads off the top of the response. Returns paired data + pipeworx:// citation URIs per entity. Replaces 8–15 sequential lookups.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | Entity type: "company" or "drug". | |
| values | Yes | For company: 2–5 tickers/CIKs (e.g., ["AAPL","MSFT"]). For drug: 2–5 names (e.g., ["ozempic","mounjaro"]). |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds behavioral traits: sorting by primary metric, handling off-calendar fiscal years, data sources (SEC EDGAR, FAERS), and citation URIs. No contradictions. Some details like rate limits are omitted.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, well-structured paragraph. The first sentence front-loads the purpose with examples. Each subsequent sentence adds meaningful context without redundancy. Every line earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (two entity types, different data sources, sorting, off-calendar fiscal years), the description is quite complete. It explains return value (paired data + citations) and replaces 8–15 sequential lookups. Minor missing details (e.g., explanation of pipeworx:// URIs) but overall sufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, but the description adds value by providing examples of values (tickers/CIKs for company, drug names for drug), explaining what each type returns, and clarifying constraints (2–5 items). This goes beyond the schema's basic descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: side-by-side comparison of 2–5 companies or drugs. It provides specific user query examples ('Compare X and Y', 'which is bigger') and distinguishes from alternatives like sequential lookups. The verb+resource is specific and actionable.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly states 'ALWAYS PREFER over sequential single-pack lookups when comparing entities,' giving clear context for when to use. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use (e.g., comparing more than 5 entities) or provide alternative sibling tool names.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
discover_toolsARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Find tools by describing the data or task. Use when you need to browse, search, look up, or discover what tools exist for: SEC filings, financials, revenue, profit, FDA drugs, adverse events, FRED economic data, Census demographics, BLS jobs/unemployment/inflation, ATTOM real estate, ClinicalTrials, USPTO patents, weather, news, crypto, stocks. Returns the top-N most relevant tools with names, descriptions, and full input schemas (with curated examples) — each result is ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed. Call this FIRST when you have many tools available and want to see the option set (not just one answer).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| q | No | Alias for query. | |
| task | No | Alias for query. | |
| limit | No | Maximum number of tools to return (default 20, max 50) | |
| query | Yes | Natural language description of what you want to do (e.g., "analyze housing market trends", "look up FDA drug approvals", "find trade data between countries"). Accepts task, q, description, search as aliases. | |
| search | No | Alias for query. | |
| description | No | Alias for query. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Description adds behavioral details beyond annotations: it returns 'top-N most relevant tools with names, descriptions, and full input schemas (with curated examples)' and ensures results are 'ready to call directly, no second schema lookup needed.' No contradiction with annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, front-loaded with purpose, no filler. Every sentence adds value: first sentence defines purpose and examples, second sentence explains output and usage advice.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's role as a discovery tool with no output schema, the description adequately explains what it returns (relevant tools with schemas) and how to use it first. It could mention output format more explicitly, but it's sufficient for the complexity level.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents all parameters. The description provides overall context and examples but does not add significant meaning beyond what the schema already states for individual parameters.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb-resource pair ('Find tools') and lists concrete use cases (SEC filings, financials, etc.). It clearly distinguishes the tool as a discovery mechanism for the sibling toolset, stating it returns top-N relevant tools ready to call.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly advises to call this tool 'FIRST when you have many tools available' and clarifies it's for browsing/searching/discovering options. It does not explicitly name alternatives but the context of sibling tools and the phrase 'not just one answer' implies when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
entity_profileARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
"Tell me about X" / "research Acme" / "brief me on Tesla" / "what does Apple do" / "company profile for Microsoft" / "give me the rundown on NVDA" / "everything you know about $TICKER" — full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call. ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view. Fans out across SEC EDGAR, XBRL, USPTO, news, GLEIF and returns: cik + company_name; recent_filings (up to 5 with pipeworx://edgar/company/{cik}/filings/{accession} URIs); fundamentals (LATEST 10-K Revenues + NetIncomeLoss + Cash, sorted period_end DESC); patents (USPTO PatentsView API sunset May 2025 — soft-fails until reactivated); recent news mentions via GDELT→GNews fallback; LEI via GLEIF. Pass ticker "AAPL" or zero-padded CIK "0000320193" — names not supported (use resolve_entity first if you only have a name).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | Entity type. Only "company" supported today; person/place coming soon. | |
| value | Yes | Ticker (e.g., "AAPL") or zero-padded CIK (e.g., "0000320193"). Names not supported — use resolve_entity first if you only have a name. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint false. The description adds significant context: fans out across multiple sources (SEC, XBRL, USPTO, news, GLEIF), returns specific fields with URIs, mentions a sunset and soft-fail for patents, and explains the parallel call nature. No contradiction 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single, fairly long paragraph but front-loads with example queries and key action. Every sentence adds value—usage guidance, return fields, fallback, limitations. While slightly verbose, it is well-structured and easily scannable. A minor improvement would be bullet points for clarity, but it remains effective.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the absence of an output schema, the description thoroughly explains return fields (cik, company_name, recent_filings with URIs, fundamentals with specific metrics sorted by period_end, patents with sunset note, news fallback, LEI). It covers the parallel fan-out, source list, and limitations. This is remarkably complete for a complex tool, leaving no major gaps.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% and descriptions already exist for both parameters (type with enum, value with format). The description adds value by reinforcing that names are not supported and that value can be ticker or zero-padded CIK, providing concrete examples. It also implies the relationship between parameters (type must be 'company' for now). This extra context raises it above baseline 3.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description starts with example queries, explicitly states the tool provides a 'full cross-source profile of a US public company in ONE parallel call,' and distinguishes it from chaining single-pack lookups. It clearly links action ('tell me about', 'research', 'brief me') to resource (US public company) and differentiates from siblings like compare_entities or resolve_entity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
It explicitly says 'ALWAYS PREFER over chaining single-pack SEC/XBRL/news lookups when the user asks for a holistic view,' provides specific when-to-use guidance, and clearly states when not to use (names not supported, pointing to resolve_entity instead). It also mentions fallback behavior (GDELT→GNews), giving clear guidance on limitations.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
forgetADestructiveIdempotentInspect
Delete a previously stored memory by key. Use when context is stale, the task is done, or you want to clear sensitive data the agent saved earlier. Pair with remember and recall.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| key | Yes | Memory key to delete |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true; description adds context about clearing sensitive data, but no contradiction.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two concise sentences, front-loaded with the action and purpose, no filler.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Adequate for a simple 1-param tool with annotations; could mention return value but not necessary.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Single parameter 'key' has 100% schema coverage. Description repeats schema description without adding new information beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Clearly states verb 'Delete' and resource 'previously stored memory by key', distinguishing it from sibling tools like remember and recall.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly states when to use (context stale, task done, clear sensitive data) and suggests pairing with remember and recall.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
generate_llms_txtARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Generate a production-ready llms.txt file for any URL so AI crawlers (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity) can index the site cleanly. Fetches the page, extracts title/description/key links, and emits the standard llms.txt markdown format. Output is a single text blob ready to drop at site-root/llms.txt. Useful for: getting a client's site indexed by AI, drafting llms.txt for your own project, or auditing how an AI crawler would see a competitor.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| url | Yes | Full URL of the site to summarize, e.g. "https://example.com" or a specific landing page. | |
| max_links | No | Maximum number of link entries to include (default 25, max 50). |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
The description details the tool's behavior: it fetches the page, extracts title/description/key links, and outputs a markdown blob. This adds value beyond the annotations (which indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive) by explaining the exact extraction and output format.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is three sentences, each delivering key information: purpose, process, and use cases. No wasted words, front-loaded with the most important information.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple tool with two parameters and no output schema, the description covers all necessary aspects: what it does, how it works, and when to use it. No gaps remain.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description mentions 'Full URL' and 'max_links' in context but does not add significant semantics beyond the schema's descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool generates a production-ready llms.txt file, specifying the verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling tools by focusing on llms.txt generation, different from scanning AI presence or visibility checks.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description lists three specific use cases (client indexing, own project, competitor audit), providing clear context for when to use. It does not explicitly state when not to use it, but the use cases imply appropriate scenarios.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
get_cardARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Look up a single Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game (TCG) card by its exact name. Returns full card details including type, description, ATK/DEF, level, attribute, archetype, banlist status, printed sets with rarities, and card prices (TCGplayer, Cardmarket, eBay, Amazon).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Yes | Exact card name, e.g. "Dark Magician". |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint, covering the safety profile. The description adds valuable detail about the output fields (type, ATK/DEF, banlist status, prices, etc.), enriching the agent's understanding without contradicting annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is two sentences: the first clearly states the primary action and constraints, the second enumerates returned data. No wasted words; front-loaded and efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's simplicity (one required parameter, no output schema), the description fully explains the input requirement and all output fields. It is complete for the tool's complexity.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with a clear description of the 'name' parameter. The tool description does not add additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so baseline score of 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool looks up a single Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG card by exact name and lists the full set of returned details (type, ATK/DEF, etc.). This is specific and distinguishes it from sibling 'search_cards' which likely returns multiple results.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description specifies that an exact name is required but does not explicitly mention when to use this tool versus alternatives like 'search_cards' or 'random_card'. It provides adequate context for correct invocation but lacks exclusionary guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
pipeworx_feedbackAInspect
Tell the Pipeworx team something is broken, missing, or needs to exist. Use when a tool returns wrong/stale data (bug), when a tool you wish existed isn't in the catalog (feature/data_gap), or when something worked surprisingly well (praise). Describe the issue in terms of Pipeworx tools/packs — don't paste the end-user's prompt. The team reads digests daily and signal directly affects roadmap. Rate-limited to 5 per identifier per day. Free; doesn't count against your tool-call quota.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | bug = something broke or returned wrong data. feature = a new tool or capability you wish existed. data_gap = data Pipeworx does not currently expose. praise = positive note. other = anything else. | |
| context | No | Optional structured context: which tool, pack, or vertical this relates to. | |
| message | Yes | Your feedback in plain text. Be specific (which tool, what error, what data was missing). 1-2 sentences typical, 2000 chars max. |
Tool Definition Quality

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
polymarket_arbitrageARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
REQUIRES one of event (single-event mode) OR topic (cross-event mode) — call with no args fails. Find arbitrage opportunities on Polymarket via monotonicity violations + partition-sum checks. event (recommended for a specific market): pass a Polymarket event slug like "fed-decision-may-2026" or "when-will-bitcoin-hit-150k"; walks child markets, checks date-axis / threshold-axis ordering AND computes the partition_check (sum of YES prices across mutually-exclusive legs — should ≈1; deviations >3pp emit a BUY/SELL EVERY LEG signal). topic (for cross-event scanning): pass a seed question like "Strait of Hormuz traffic returns to normal" or "Fed rate decision"; searches related events across the platform, flattens markets, runs the comparator on the union. Cross-event mode catches "...by May 31" vs "...by Jun 30" patterns that single-event misses. SEMANTIC ANCHOR: cross-event pairs require ≥0.30 Jaccard similarity on question tokens (prevents Powell-Fed-Pause being paired with Powell-DOJ-probe); skipped_low_similarity surfaces the rejected pair count. PARTITION FILTER: drops will-person-X / will-manager-Y / will-someone-else- placeholder slugs; partitions with >20% placeholder fraction return null arb signal. Response: opportunities[] (gap_pp, suggested_trade, reasoning, monotonicity violation context), and in event mode partition_check{sum_yes_prices, gap_from_1, placeholders_filtered, suggested_trade}.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| event | No | Single-event mode (use this if you know the specific Polymarket event): event slug like "fed-decision-may-2026" or "when-will-bitcoin-hit-150k". Full Polymarket URLs also accepted. | |
| topic | No | Cross-event mode (use this if you want to scan related events across the platform): a topic or seed question like "Fed rate decision" or "Strait of Hormuz traffic returns to normal". Tool searches Polymarket for related events and checks monotonicity across them. |

polymarket_edgesARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Scan top Polymarket markets and return opportunities where Pipeworx data disagrees with market price. Built for "what should I bet on today" — agents discover opportunities without paging hundreds of markets. FIVE MODEL FAMILIES grouped into three response segments under by_segment: (1) MODEL_DRIVEN — crypto_price (lognormal barrier from 90d FRED log-returns) and news_momentum (GDELT 7d/21d article-volume ratio, soft signal w/ halved Kelly). (2) STRUCTURAL_ARBITRAGE — partition_overround on mutually-exclusive events; per-leg favorite-longshot bias correction with per-sport α (tennis 1.02, soccer 1.10, MMA 1.15, default 1.0); placeholder-slug filter drops will-person-X / will-team-Y / will-manager-Z / will-someone-else- backstops; partitions with >20% placeholder fraction skipped entirely. (3) CONCENTRATED_LONGSHOT — basket trade when one leg ≥75% AND ≥2 longshots ≤8% AND portfolio return ≥25:1; rare-by-design (gates relaxed Run 8 from prior 85%/5%/50:1). EVERY OPPORTUNITY carries edge_pp_net (after slippage), kelly_fraction + kelly_fraction_half (capped at 0.25), market.liquidity, market.spread_pp, market.volume, plus a 24h-move warning ("Market moved X.Xpp in 24h") when the recent move alone exceeds the edge — your edge may already be in the price. TRADEABLE-EDGE KNOBS: min_liquidity / max_spread_pp drop opportunities where edge isn't realizable; min_partition_leg_kelly filters partitions by best per-leg Kelly. RESPONSE TOP-LEVEL: by_segment{model_driven,structural_arbitrage,concentrated_longshot}, fed_candidates/fed_note (Fed bets surface here, excluded from ranking — 1m-T vs EFFR signal is unreliable at meeting-month horizons without paid OIS/SOFR-futures data), and _diagnostics{concentrated_longshot:{...funnel counters},category_counts,filter_skips} so callers can see WHY a segment is empty (top-N stale, all candidates failed gates, knob dropped them). Cached 1h at the KV level keyed on all knobs.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | Top N edges to return after ranking. Default 10, max 25. | |
| window | No | Polymarket volume window to filter markets. Default 1wk. | |
| min_kelly | No | Minimum half-Kelly fraction (as decimal, e.g. 0.005 = 0.5% of bankroll) to include single-leg opportunities. Default 0 (no filter). Skips opportunities that are too small to bet sensibly even if the edge is large. | |
| min_edge_pp | No | Minimum |edge| in percentage points to include (default 0.5). Edge is evaluated NET of slippage. | |
| slippage_pp | No | Assumed execution slippage in percentage points per leg (default 0.3). Subtracted from raw |edge| before ranking and Kelly sizing. Polymarket has zero trading fees as of 2024 but bid/ask + thin depth typically eats 20-50bp per trade. Bump for very thin partitions; drop to 0 if you have a smarter fill model. | |
| max_spread_pp | No | Tradeable-edge filter. Maximum bid/ask spread in percentage points on the representative market. Default null (no filter). Set to 2 to require tight books — anything wider eats most plausible edges. | |
| min_liquidity | No | Tradeable-edge filter. Minimum $ liquidity on the representative market (or for partition_overround, on at least one top_leg). Default 0 (no filter). Set to 5000 to drop thin-book opportunities where executing the edge would walk the book past breakeven. | |
| category_filter | No | Comma-separated list to restrict the output: "model_driven" (crypto_price + news_momentum), "structural_arbitrage" (partition_overround), "concentrated_longshot". Combine like "model_driven,structural_arbitrage". Default: all. | |
| min_partition_leg_kelly | No | Minimum BEST per-leg half-Kelly fraction across a partition_overround opportunity's top_legs (or longshot_basket legs). Default 0 (no filter). Partition arbs always return kelly_fraction_half=0 at the parent level by design (basket trades don't compose to single-leg Kelly), so min_kelly never filters them — this knob applies to the per-leg Kelly inside top_legs instead. Use to suppress thin partitions whose individual leg edges aren't worth the per-leg slippage cost. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Beyond readOnlyHint annotations, the description exposes algorithmic details (Kelly caps, partition filters, Fed exclusion), caching behavior, and diagnostic fields. No contradiction 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.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is lengthy but well-organized: overview, segments, per-opportunity fields, knobs, response structure. Every section adds value, though some extraneous detail (e.g., exact α values) could be streamlined.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the complexity (3 segments, 9 parameters, no output schema), it fully covers return values, filtering logic, and diagnostic information. Agents have everything needed to decide when and how to call.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds meaningful context for most parameters (e.g., min_edge_pp being net of slippage, min_partition_leg_kelly explaining why partition arbs bypass min_kelly).
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description explicitly states it scans Polymarket markets for opportunities where Pipeworx data disagrees with market price, with a clear scope ('what should I bet on today'). It distinguishes from siblings by detailing three specific model families and segments.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description gives a strong usage context ('what should I bet on today') and notes caching. It lacks explicit when-not-to-use or direct sibling comparisons, but the clear segment filters and knobs implicitly guide use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
polymarket_kalshi_spreadARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Cross-venue spread between Kalshi and Polymarket for the same resolving question. The two venues sometimes price the same outcome 2-25pp apart because their participant pools differ — when the bet shapes are equivalent that delta is a real signal, when they aren't the tool says so. TWO MODES: (1) topic — 10 pre-mapped macro shortcuts ("fed", "btc", "cpi", "gdp", "sp500", "recession", "next_pope", "next_uk_pm", "next_israel_pm", "2028_president") auto-fetch the matching event on each venue. (2) explicit kalshi_event_ticker + polymarket_event_slug for custom pairings. RESPONSE: each venue's leg-by-leg prices (raw probability 0-1) plus matched spread[].top_spreads_pp (Kalshi − Polymarket) where the same outcome shows up on both sides. SAFETY FIELDS: compatibility_warning fires in two cases — (a) matched_pairs:0 with skipped_cross_type>0 means the venues frame the topic with non-equivalent bet shapes (e.g. Kalshi range_bucket point-in-time vs Polymarket cumulative_threshold touch-anywhere — no arb exists), (b) matched_pairs:0 with skipped_cross_type:0 and both venues >5 legs means the token-overlap matcher found nothing in common — events likely semantically unrelated despite the topic keyword. temporal_alignment{polymarket_month,kalshi_month,aligned} tells you whether the two events resolve in the same calendar period; aligned:false means spreads are mathematically meaningless across the temporal gap. skipped_cross_type / skipped_cross_subtype counters expose how many leg-pair comparisons were dropped (cross-type = metric_type mismatch like MoM vs YoY; cross-subtype = inequality mismatch like cum_ge vs cum_le). Real cross-venue spreads are rarer than the macro-shortcut list suggests — most pre-mapped topics return compatibility_warning today; pre-mapped ≠ tradeable.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| topic | No | Pre-mapped: fed | btc | cpi | gdp | sp500 | recession | next_pope | next_uk_pm | next_israel_pm | 2028_president | |
| kalshi_event_ticker | No | Explicit Kalshi event ticker, e.g. "KXFED-26OCT". Overrides the topic-mapped Kalshi side. | |
| polymarket_event_slug | No | Explicit Polymarket event slug, e.g. "fed-decision-in-june-825". Overrides the topic-mapped Polymarket side. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations confirm read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior; the description adds rich behavioral context: it explains that the tool reports when bet shapes are non-equivalent, provides safety fields, and describes when spreads are meaningless.

Schema coverage is 100% with good descriptions for all three parameters. The description enhances this by explaining `since`'s ISO and relative shorthand formats with examples ('7d', '30d', '1y'), and clarifying `value` accepts ticker or CIK. Only minor gap: no further semantics on `type` beyond 'company only'.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool provides a change feed for a company combining multiple sources (SEC, GDELT/GNews, USPTO) in one parallel call, with example queries like 'What's new with X' and a direct contrast to sibling entity_profile. This makes the purpose unambiguous.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description includes explicit guidance to use entity_profile for static profiles instead, effectively telling agents when not to use this tool. However, it lacks explicit exclusions for other alternative tools like search_cards or validate_claim, which could have slightly overlapping use cases.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
rememberAIdempotentInspect
Save data the agent will need to reuse later — across this conversation or across sessions. Use when you discover something worth carrying forward (a resolved ticker, a target address, a user preference, a research subject) so you don't have to look it up again. Stored as a key-value pair scoped by your identifier. Authenticated users get persistent memory; anonymous sessions retain memory for 24 hours. Pair with recall to retrieve later, forget to delete.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| key | Yes | Memory key (e.g., "subject_property", "target_ticker", "user_preference") | |
| value | Yes | Value to store (any text — findings, addresses, preferences, notes) |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Discloses key-value scoping by identifier, persistence differences (authenticated vs anonymous 24hr), and pairing instructions. These details go beyond annotations (idempotentHint, readOnlyHint, destructiveHint).
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Front-loaded with purpose, then usage, then behavior. Every sentence adds value; no fluff.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Covers all necessary aspects: what, when, how, pairing, persistence. No output schema needed for a store operation; transparency sufficient.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schemas already describe key and value well (100% coverage), but description adds naming conventions and acceptable value types, enhancing clarity for agents.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states 'Save data the agent will need to reuse later' with specific examples like ticker, address, preference. Distinct from sibling tools recall and forget.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says 'Use when you discover something worth carrying forward' with concrete scenarios, and instructs to pair with recall and forget for lifecycle management.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
resolve_entityARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
"What's the ticker for…" / "find the CIK for…" / "what's the RxCUI for…" / "look up the ID for…" / "what is X's official identifier" — resolve a user-spoken NAME to the canonical/official identifier other tools require as input. Use FIRST whenever you have a name but need an ID. SUPPORTED TYPES: "company" (returns ticker + 10-digit CIK + company_name from SEC EDGAR + pipeworx://edgar/company/{cik} citation URI; accepts ticker, CIK, or company name as input — auto-disambiguated), "drug" (returns RxCUI + ingredient + brand from RxNorm + pipeworx://rxnorm/{rxcui} citation; accepts brand or generic name). Each call cascades through several lookup endpoints internally — using resolve_entity replaces 2-3 manual lookups.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Yes | Entity type: "company" or "drug". | |
| value | Yes | For company: ticker (AAPL), CIK (0000320193), or name. For drug: brand or generic name (e.g., "ozempic", "metformin"). |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare safe, read-only, idempotent behavior. The description adds internal cascading details ('replaces 2-3 manual lookups') and specific return fields (ticker, CIK, URI for company; RxCUI, ingredient, URI for drug), which is valuable beyond annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is a single paragraph packed with examples, supported types, return details, and usage guidance. It is front-loaded with examples, making it efficient, though it could be slightly more structured with bullet points.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, the description details return values for each entity type and internal cascading. It covers the tool's purpose, inputs, and outputs comprehensively. Minor gaps exist (e.g., error handling), but overall it is complete for a lookup tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema covers 100% of parameters. The description enriches both parameters with examples (e.g., 'AAPL', '0000320193', 'ozempic') and notes auto-disambiguation for company. This adds clarity beyond the schema's generic descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses specific verb-resource pairs ('resolve a user-spoken NAME to the canonical/official identifier') and provides concrete examples ('What's the ticker for…'). It clearly distinguishes from sibling tools by positioning itself as the first step when needing an ID.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says 'Use FIRST whenever you have a name but need an ID.' It describes when to use each type (company vs drug) and what returns to expect, though it doesn't explicitly state when not to use it.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
scan_competitor_ai_presenceARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Compare AI visibility across multiple entities side-by-side. Probes each entity (your brand + N competitors) with ai_visibility_check, ranks by score, surfaces which is most/least recognized. Useful for competitive AI-marketing audits: "does Claude know about us as well as our competitors?". Returns ranked list with score, confidence, signal density per entity.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| models | No | Which models to probe. Supported: "workers-ai" (free default), "anthropic" (requires _apiKey). Omit for just workers-ai. | |
| _apiKey | No | Optional Anthropic API key — only if "anthropic" is in models. Passed to api.anthropic.com per probe. | |
| context | No | Optional shared context applied to every probe (e.g. "B2B SaaS", "Boston restaurant"). Disambiguates common names. | |
| entities | Yes | Array of 2-8 entities to compare (brand/business/product names). First entry treated as the "subject" for narrative; rest are competitors. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and destructiveHint=false, indicating a safe, repeatable read operation. The description adds context beyond annotations: it explains the process (probes with ai_visibility_check, ranks by score) and the output format (ranked list with score, confidence, signal density per entity). It also notes that the first entity is treated as the 'subject' for narrative purposes. No contradictions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is three sentences with no wasted words. The first sentence states the main function, the second details the process, and the third provides a use case and output summary. Information is front-loaded and each sentence earns its place.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Given the tool's complexity (4 parameters, 1 required, no output schema), the description covers purpose, process, output format (ranked list with score, confidence, signal density), and a usage scenario. It provides enough information for an agent to understand what the tool does and what it returns.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds value by explaining that the first entity in the 'entities' array is treated as the 'subject' for narrative and the rest as competitors. It also clarifies the default model behavior (workers-ai) and the role of 'context' for disambiguation. These details are not present in the schema descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Compare AI visibility across multiple entities side-by-side.' It specifies the verb (compare), resource (AI visibility across multiple entities), and provides a concrete use case example ('does Claude know about us as well as our competitors?'). It distinguishes from siblings like ai_visibility_check (single entity) and compare_entities (generic comparison) by mentioning it probes each entity with ai_visibility_check and ranks results.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states the tool is 'useful for competitive AI-marketing audits,' giving clear context for when to use it. It implies the alternative ai_visibility_check for single entity checks by stating it probes each entity with that tool. However, it does not explicitly mention when not to use this tool (e.g., for non-competitive single-entity analysis).
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
scan_dependencyARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Composite "should I add this npm package to my project" check in ONE call — fans out across deps.dev (license + advisories + version history) and bundlephobia (gzipped/minified bundle size, dependency count, ESM/tree-shake support). Use whenever an agent asks "is X safe / popular / small" or "what does adding lodash cost me". Returns a summary block (is_latest, license, published_at, advisory_count, bundle_kb_min, bundle_kb_gz, dependency_count, has_esm, tree_shakeable), per-advisory detail, links, and a list of recent alternative versions. NPM ecosystem only in v1; PyPI / Maven / Cargo / Go fall under deps.dev:version directly. Partial failures degrade gracefully — bundlephobia's first measurement on a new version can take 5-30s; sources_failed will list it if it times out, the rest still returns.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| package | Yes | npm package name. Scoped packages (e.g. "@types/node") are accepted. | |
| version | No | Specific version to check (e.g., "18.3.1"). Defaults to the latest published version when omitted. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint. The description adds important behavioral details: partial failures degrade gracefully, bundlephobia's first measurement can take 5-30s, and sources_failed lists timeouts.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is informative but slightly long; it front-loads the core purpose and all sentences are valuable. It could be tightened slightly but remains efficient.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
Despite no output schema, the description comprehensively details the return structure (summary block, per-advisory detail, links, alternative versions) and error handling (partial failures). Covers all key aspects for a complex, multi-source tool.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with descriptions for both parameters. The description adds value by noting scoped packages are accepted for 'package' and that 'version' defaults to latest when omitted.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool's purpose: a composite check for adding an npm package, covering license, advisories, size, and more. It distinguishes from siblings by specifying NPM-only in v1 and pointing to deps.dev:version for other ecosystems.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly states when to use ('is X safe / popular / small') and provides an alternative for non-NPM ecosystems ('PyPI / Maven / Cargo / Go fall under deps.dev:version directly').
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
search_cardsARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
Search Yu-Gi-Oh! trading card game (TCG) cards by name (fuzzy), card type, attribute, monster race/type, archetype, or level. Returns matching cards with names, types, descriptions, ATK/DEF, attributes, archetypes, images, and TCGplayer card prices.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| num | No | Number of results to return (default 20, max 50). | |
| name | No | Fuzzy card name match, e.g. "Dark Magician", "Blue-Eyes". | |
| race | No | Monster type/race, e.g. 'Spellcaster', 'Dragon', 'Warrior'. For Spell/Trap, the property e.g. 'Continuous', 'Quick-Play'. | |
| type | No | Card type, e.g. 'Effect Monster', 'Normal Monster', 'Spell Card', 'Trap Card', 'XYZ Monster'. | |
| level | No | Monster level/rank, e.g. 7. | |
| offset | No | Pagination offset (default 0). | |
| archetype | No | Card archetype, e.g. "Blue-Eyes", "Dark Magician", "Sky Striker". | |
| attribute | No | Monster attribute, e.g. 'DARK', 'LIGHT', 'EARTH', 'WATER', 'FIRE', 'WIND', 'DIVINE'. |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, and destructiveHint false. The description adds value by specifying return fields (names, types, descriptions, ATK/DEF, etc.) but does not disclose edge cases like empty query behavior or rate limits.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences: first introduces the search functionality and filters, second lists return fields. No fluff, front-loaded, and every sentence is informative.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema, the description lists return fields but does not specify the response structure (e.g., array) or behavior when no parameters are provided. Still fairly complete for a search tool with good annotations.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100%, so each parameter is documented. The description summarizes the filter options but does not add new meaning beyond grouping; the fuzzy name mention is already in schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool searches Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG cards by multiple criteria (fuzzy name, type, attribute, race, archetype, level) and lists the return fields, making the purpose distinct from siblings like get_card or random_card.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies usage for finding cards matching given criteria but does not explicitly say when to use this vs alternatives like get_card for specific cards or random_card. No exclusions or when-not-to-use guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
validate_claimARead-onlyIdempotentInspect
"Is it true that…" / "fact check" / "verify the claim that…" / "did X really…" / "was Y actually…" / "confirm or refute" / "true or false" — natural-language claim verification against authoritative sources. Use whenever the agent needs to check whether something a user said is factually correct. v1 supports company-financial claims (revenue, net income, cash position for public US companies) via SEC EDGAR + XBRL. Returns a verdict (confirmed / approximately_correct / refuted / inconclusive / unsupported), extracted structured form, actual value with pipeworx:// citation, and percent delta. Replaces 4–6 sequential calls (NL parsing → entity resolution → data lookup → numeric comparison).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| claim | Yes | Natural-language factual claim, e.g., "Apple's FY2024 revenue was $400 billion" or "Microsoft made about $100B in profit last year". |
Tool Definition Quality
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Beyond annotations (readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive), description details return values (verdict types, citation, percent delta) and notes it replaces multiple calls. No contradictions.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Two sentences, each serving a purpose: trigger phrases and functionality. Front-loaded with examples. Efficient and clear.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a one-param tool with full schema and annotations, the description covers domain, return values, and efficiency improvement. No output schema but explains output well.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema coverage is 100% with good description. Description adds context and examples but doesn't significantly enhance parameter semantics beyond schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
Description clearly states the tool is for natural-language claim verification with specific trigger phrases and domain (company-financial claims). It distinguishes from siblings like entity_profile or resolve_entity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
Explicitly says when to use it (when needing to check factual correctness) and provides domain limitation. Lacks explicit when-not-to-use or alternative tools.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
