unsubscribeCancel a subscription by id. Ownership is enforced — you can only cancel your own subscriptions. The row is deactivated (not deleted) so its historical events stay available via recent_alerts.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | Yes | Subscription id (uuid) returned by subscribe. |

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate non-readonly, non-destructive, idempotent. Description adds critical details: row is deactivated (not deleted) and history stays available, ownership check. This enriches 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?
Two sentences, no wasted words. First sentence states core action, second adds behavioral nuance. Front-loaded and efficient.
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 tool's simplicity (single parameter, no output schema), the description covers purpose, behavior, and constraints adequately. No gaps for expected usage.
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?
Schema coverage is 100% and already describes the id parameter well. Description does not add new parameter-level meaning beyond confirming it's a subscription id from subscribe.
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?
Clearly states the action 'Cancel a subscription by id' with a specific resource and identifier. Distinguishes from sibling tools like subscribe and list_subscriptions by being the inverse operation.
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?
Provides context: ownership enforcement and that historical events remain via recent_alerts. Does not explicitly compare with alternatives or state when not to use, but the purpose is clear enough.
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.
Several tools are close cousins: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all route to the same underlying data catalog, and bet_research/polymarket_edges/polymarket_arbitrage share a betting-research niche. The eBird tools are clearly a different cluster, but the server carries so many unrelated domains that an agent may struggle to pick the right category member (e.g., stable router vs beta router vs grounded router).
Almost everything is snake_case, but the pattern is not uniform: there are plenty of verb_noun names (find_species, list_subregions, scan_competitor_ai_presence) mixed with bare consumer-style names (ask_pipeworx, bet_research, entity_profile, deep_research) and short helpers (recall, forget, remember). No mixed scripting-case chaos, but no consistent verb_noun or noun_verb system either.
36 tools is heavy for a server that calls itself Ebird: only ~5 tools actually relate to bird observation, while the rest span Pipeworx data lookups, Polymarket betting, legal/regulatory analyzers, memory, subscriptions, competency scanning, npm package checking, and llms.txt generation. The count would be reasonable for a broad data platform, but the server's stated identity and the bundled tool set do not match, making the scope feel bloated and incoherent.
For a bird-centric server, the surface is thin: you can find a species, list subregions, and pull recent/notable observations, but you cannot get coordinated eBird atlases, hotspot details, species life-history stats, or region-based species lists. For the larger set of unrelated tools, completeness is impossible to gauge about a missing domain; the eBird purpose feels unfinished even though the miscellaneous tools are overloaded.
