list_subscriptionsList the caller's active subscriptions. Returns id, type, params, created_at, last_fired_at, fire_count for each. Use this to review what you're monitoring before adding more or to find an id to cancel.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| include_inactive | No | Include cancelled subscriptions in the response (default false). |

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare read-only, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. The description adds value by detailing the returned fields and the optional filtering of inactive subscriptions, providing behavioral context 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 two concise sentences, front-loading the core action and return info, then adding usage guidance. No extraneous words.
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 low complexity (1 optional param, no output schema), the description is complete: it explains what is returned, the parameter effect, and why to use the tool. No 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?
The schema fully documents the single parameter 'include_inactive' with 100% coverage. The description does not add additional semantic detail beyond the schema, so baseline score 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 lists the caller's active subscriptions and specifies the returned fields. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like subscribe and unsubscribe by focusing on listing existing subscriptions.
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 usage guidance: 'Use this to review what you're monitoring before adding more or to find an id to cancel.' This clearly indicates when to use the tool relative to subscribing/unsubscribing.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Many tools have overlapping purposes, especially in the prediction market domain (e.g., bet_research, polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_fill_risk) and data querying (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research). This overlap creates confusion for an agent selecting the right tool.
Naming is inconsistent: most tools use snake_case but some start with a verb (ask_, bet_, compare_) while others start with a noun (entity_profile, pipeworx_feedback, polymarket_*). There is no uniform pattern, making it harder to predict tool names.
With 32 tools, the server is overstuffed for a single focus. It bundles checksums, AI visibility, data queries, prediction market analysis, subscriptions, memory, and more, which would be better split into separate, more focused servers.
Despite the large tool count, the server lacks completeness in key areas: no tool to place prediction market trades, no direct SEC filing detail extraction (only through generic queries), and only two checksum tools despite the server name 'Crc'. The surface feels scattershot rather than comprehensive.
