Recent Alerts

recent_alerts
Read-onlyIdempotent

Pull fired events from your subscription feed. Returns the most recent alerts the evaluator has written to your persisted feed — each carries source, citation_uri (pipeworx:// when available), and the raw event payload. Filter by type (e.g. "sec_8k") and/or since (ISO timestamp). Set mark_read:true to flag returned events read so the next call only shows newer ones. Polls work fine; the same feed is also at GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json for scripts and dashboards.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeNoOptional — filter to one subscription type.
limitNoMax events to return (1-200, default 50).
sinceNoOptional ISO timestamp — return events fired_at >= this time.
mark_readNoFlag the returned events read in the same call (default false).
unread_onlyNoReturn only events where read_at is null (default false).

A3.9/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

The description explicitly describes mark_read:true as flagging returned events read, which is a side effect. This directly contradicts the readOnlyHint annotation set to true. The tool mutates read state, so it is not purely read-only, creating a serious annotation contradiction.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is well-structured, front-loading the main purpose, then providing details on returns, filtering, side effects, and alternative access. Every sentence adds useful information without redundancy.

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 5 optional parameters and no output schema, the description is thorough. It explains the return payload, filtering, mark_read effect, polling suitability, and provides an alternative endpoint, making the tool's behavior fully comprehensible for an agent.

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%, so the baseline is 3. The description adds value with a concrete example for type ('sec_8k'), clarifies since is an ISO timestamp, and explains the effect of mark_read. This enriches parameter understanding 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 pulls fired events from a subscription feed, specifying the resource and action. It distinguishes itself by focusing on alerts from a persisted feed, which is distinct from sibling tools like list_subscriptions.

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 provides context on filtering, mark_read, and polling, and even notes an alternative HTTP endpoint for scripts/dashboards. It does not explicitly say when not to use this tool versus specific siblings, but the guidance is clear enough for typical use.

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

Most tools fall into recognizable families (data lookup, entity research, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions), and the detailed descriptions help separate them. However, ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are near-identical variants, and several polymarket scanning tools overlap in purpose enough to cause misselection.

Naming Consistency4/5

Nearly all tool names are snake_case and readable, and families share clear prefixes like ask_pipeworx_*, polymarket_*, and pipeworx_*. The main inconsistency is that the Brazilian data endpoints use bare nouns (quote, crypto, currency, inflation, prime_rate) while most other tools use verb-like action names, so there is no single verb_noun pattern throughout.

Tool Count2/5

38 tools is well above the 25+ threshold for a heavy MCP surface, even though the server aggregates several distinct domains. Each tool may have a purpose, but the sheer count makes the set difficult to navigate and suggests the server is trying to be a platform rather than a focused toolset.

Completeness4/5

The server covers the full lifecycle for its core areas: lookup (ask_pipeworx, grounded, deep_research), entity workflows (resolve, profile, compare, recent_changes), memory (remember/recall/forget), and subscriptions (subscribe/list/unsubscribe/recent_alerts). Minor gaps exist, such as no subscription update/pause and no direct tool to fetch an arbitrary pipeworx:// citation, but agents can work around these.
