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.

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnly, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds rich behavioral context: output fields (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates), trend computation details (new, widening, stable, decaying), and decay interpretation. 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.

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is well-organized: purpose, output format, limits. It is dense but each sentence adds value. Slightly verbose in the output description but still effective. The front-loaded question makes intent clear.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema, the description fully explains the return structure (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates) and key details. It also mentions limits (60-day TTL, snapshot start). Missing error handling or edge cases, but adequate for typical use.

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?

Both parameters are fully described in the schema (100% coverage). The description adds value by specifying defaults and ranges (days default 14, max 30; window default '1wk' and families) beyond the schema descriptions.

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 provides 'Edge persistence and decay telemetry' and answers a specific question: 'how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?'. It distinguishes itself from the likely sibling 'polymarket_edges' by focusing on temporal dynamics.

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 gives a compelling rationale for when to use this tool ('a fresh wide edge and a 3-week-old wide edge are different trades') and mentions limits (60-day TTL). It implicitly tells the agent to use this for historical edge behavior, but does not explicitly exclude alternatives.

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

Many tools have overlapping purposes, e.g., multiple ask/tools for querying (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research) and multiple company analysis tools (entity_profile, compare_entities, recent_changes). The prediction market tools (bet_research, polymarket_arbitrage, etc.) further blur distinctions. Agents would frequently select the wrong tool.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming conventions are inconsistent: snake_case (ask_pipeworx, dataset_info), camelCase (ai_visibility_check, scan_competitor_ai_presence), and phrases (pipeworx_feedback, polymarket_arbitrage). No pattern emerges, making tool discovery harder.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is excessive for a server ostensibly about Île-de-France Open Data. Only 3 tools (dataset_info, query, search_datasets) relate to that domain, while the rest are a general-purpose data agent with many disjoint capabilities. The count feels bloated and unfocused.

Completeness2/5

For the declared purpose (Île-de-France data), the tool set is missing CRUD operations (no create/update/delete). For the actual general data use, there are gaps like missing person entity resolution, data visualization, and file handling. The deep_research tool requires an account, creating a barrier.
