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.

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations indicate read-only, open-world, idempotent, non-destructive behavior. The description adds rich behavioral detail: snapshot TTL limits, decay computation from daily closes, interpretation of negative values, trend categories, and meaning of data gaps. No contradictions.

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 a single dense paragraph but is front-loaded with purpose. Every sentence adds value, though it could be slightly more structured (e.g., bullet points for response sections). No 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?

No output schema exists, so the description must compensate. It thoroughly describes the three output arrays (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates) with field explanations, limits, and caveats, making it complete for an AI agent to understand the return value.

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 baseline is 3. The description adds default values for both parameters (days: 14, window: '1wk'), max clamp for days (30), and explains how parameters affect output via the response structure. This goes 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's purpose: providing edge persistence and decay telemetry from daily snapshots, answering how long an edge has existed and if it is shrinking. It distinguishes from siblings like polymarket_edges by focusing on time-series and decay analysis.

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 guidance on when to use (distinguishing between fresh and old edges) and implies context through the comparison, but does not explicitly name alternative tools for simpler edge queries. The guidance is clear enough for an AI agent.

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

B3.1/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tool families overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded are near-identical entry points, while discover_tools/suggest_questions and entity_profile/compare_entities/recent_changes serve similar discovery/comparison roles. The polymarket_* cluster also has tightly related boundaries that require reading long descriptions to disambiguate, and version-related helper tools (go_mod, module, versions, version_info) add further confusion.

Naming Consistency3/5

Most tools follow a lowercase snake_case verb_noun pattern (list_subscriptions, resolve_entity, validate_claim), but there are notable deviations: bare verbs like remember/recall/forget, noun-only names like go_mod, module, versions, and version_info, and brand-prefixed names like ask_pipeworx and pipeworx_feedback. The naming is readable and generally predictable, yet the mix of conventions keeps it from being highly consistent.

Tool Count2/5

With 35 tools, the surface is heavy for what is ultimately a data-access and research server. Many tools are conveniences or meta-wrappers that could be consolidated (e.g., three ask_pipeworx variants, multiple polymarket scanners, several onboarding/discovery tools). While the breadth is intentional, 35 feels bloated rather than well-scoped.

Completeness4/5

The toolset covers a remarkably broad domain: universal data lookup, grounded fact-checking, entity resolution, company profiles, comparisons, prediction-market analysis, memory, subscriptions, and feedback. Minor gaps exist—subscriptions can be created/cancelled but not updated/paused, and there is no direct resolver for pipeworx:// citation URIs—but these are workable and core workflows have no dead ends.
