Query

query
Read-onlyIdempotent

Run a Socrata SoQL query against a Virginia Open Data dataset by resource_id (e.g. "rdpw-mtbs"). Filter with where/select/group/order (SoQL clauses, without the leading $) plus limit/offset. Returns matching rows as JSON.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, openWorldHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, so the safe read-only nature is covered. The description adds meaningful context: returns JSON, specific SoQL clause handling, and the requirement not to use leading $, which is beyond the annotations.

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?

Two sentences, front-loaded with the main purpose, including an example resource_id. Every word earns its place, and the structure is clean and direct.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description states returns JSON. It covers all parameter groups (where, select, group, order, limit, offset, resource_id) and provides usage context. For a 7-parameter tool, this is complete and sufficient for an agent to invoke correctly.

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% (all 7 parameters described). The description adds extra semantic value by explaining the SoQL clauses and the 'no leading $' convention, which is not obvious from the schema alone. This goes beyond the baseline for high schema coverage.

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 'Run a Socrata SoQL query' against a specific resource identified by resource_id, with an example. It distinguishes from siblings like 'datasets' (listing datasets) and 'metadata' by focusing on querying rows.

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 implies when to use it: when you have a resource_id and need to filter/select data. It does not explicitly state alternatives or exclusions, but the context and syntax details (SoQL without leading $) provide clear guidance for use.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tool clusters are near-duplicates or easy to confuse: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are nearly identical (beta currently matches stable exactly), while polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, and bet_research all scan prediction-market opportunities with overlapping outputs. entity_profile/compare_entities/recent_changes and ai_visibility_check/scan_competitor_ai_presence add further redundancy. Despite detailed descriptions, the boundaries require careful reading, so an agent is likely to misselect.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case and readable, with useful prefixes like ask_, polymarket_, pipeworx_, and scan_. However, conventions are mixed: verb_noun (ask_pipeworx, list_subscriptions, resolve_entity) coexists with bare nouns (datasets, metadata, query) and noun-first compounds (entity_profile, bet_research, deep_research). There is no single predictable pattern.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is above the 25-tool threshold, and the set spans multiple unrelated domains such as data routing, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, Virginia Open Data, AI visibility, and npm dependency checks. Several tools are effectively wrappers or near-overlaps that could be consolidated, e.g., ai_visibility_check vs scan_competitor_ai_presence and polymarket_edges vs polymarket_arbitrage. The surface feels bloated for a single server.

Completeness4/5

Within its main sub-domains the set is solid: memory has remember/recall/forget, subscriptions have subscribe/unsubscribe/list/recent_alerts, research has resolve_entity/compare_entities/entity_profile/recent_changes/validate_claim, and Polymarket has detection/arbitrage/fill-risk/edge-tracking. Minor gaps exist — no tool to fetch a raw pipeworx:// record, no write/update for Virginia Open Data, and no trade execution for prediction markets — but these do not create dead ends for a research-focused agent.
