Polymarket Edge Tracker

polymarket_edge_tracker
Read-onlyIdempotent

Edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots. Answers "how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?" — a fresh wide edge and a 3-week-old wide edge are different trades (the latter is wide for a reason nobody is willing to take). Args: days (lookback, default 14, max 30), window (snapshot family, default "1wk"). RESPONSE: tracked[] = every opportunity in the LATEST snapshot with its full edge_pp_net time-series across prior snapshots, first_seen, trend (new | widening | stable | decaying) and decay_pp_per_day (both computed on |edge_pp_net| — the value itself is signed by trade direction, negative = SELL YES); expired[] = opportunities that appeared in earlier snapshots but are GONE from the latest (closed, resolved, or arbed away) with their lifespan_days — the median lifespan is your competition clock; snapshot_dates[] = which days actually have data (snapshots are written when polymarket_edges runs on a cache-miss, so gaps mean nobody scanned that day). LIMITS: history depth is bounded by the 60-day snapshot TTL and starts from when snapshotting was enabled; decay numbers come from daily closes of edge_pp_net (net of default slippage), not intraday.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate read-only, open-world, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds details about snapshot TTL, decay computation from daily closes, and the meaning of gaps, which are beyond annotations and add significant transparency.

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 relatively long but well-structured with purpose, argument details, response format, and limits. Every sentence adds value, though some redundancy exists with schema. It is front-loaded with the main purpose.

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 complexity of edge persistence telemetry and no output schema, the description covers response fields (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates) and limitations (TTL, decay source). It is fully self-contained for an agent to understand the tool's capabilities and output.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

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 repeats default and clamp values already in the schema, adding no new semantic meaning. It provides a bit more context on window family but not enough to exceed baseline.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states it provides telemetry on edge persistence and decay from daily snapshots. It distinguishes from sibling tools like polymarket_edges by focusing on historical persistence rather than current edges.

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?

The description explains the tool answers how long an edge has existed and whether it is shrinking, with a clear example contrasting new vs old edges. It provides argument defaults but does not explicitly mention when to use alternatives, though context implies it for historical analysis.

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

There is meaningful overlap among the ask_pipeworx, deep_research, validate_claim, and polymarket_* tools, but the descriptions do draw fairly clear boundaries between them. The five yt_* tools are distinct and easy to tell apart, though the unrelated Pipeworx cluster makes the overall set feel muddier than it should.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools use readable snake_case, and there are coherent prefixes like yt_ and polymarket_, but the set mixes bare verbs (remember, recall, forget, subscribe), noun-style names (entity_profile, deep_research), and API-like names (ask_pipeworx, generate_llms_txt). The pattern is not chaotic, but it is inconsistent across the set.

Tool Count2/5

36 tools is well above the typical well-scoped range, and the vast majority are unrelated to the server's stated 'Youtube' identity. The actual YouTube surface is only five tools, while 31 tools belong to a different Pipeworx/Polymarket domain.

Completeness2/5

For a YouTube-focused server, the yt_* tools cover search, channel info, video details, and comments, but miss obvious surfaces like playlists, transcripts, subscriptions, uploads, and video updates. The large non-YouTube tool collection does not fill these gaps; it only makes the server feel mis-scoped.
