Search Within a Source

search_within
Read-onlyIdempotent

Semantic search INSIDE a fetched record. Pass the text you already pulled (e.g. a SEC 10-K body, an article, a long tool result) plus a natural-language query; get back the top-N passages with character offsets and similarity scores. Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt — search_within saves context, returns only the passages that matter, and every passage carries an offset so the agent can verify a verbatim quote. Pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded: fetch with the gateway, ground over the relevant passages instead of the whole document. BGE-base-en embeddings + cosine over 500-char overlapping windows; cap is 200K chars (longer inputs are truncated and flagged).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
textYesThe document text to search inside (max ~200K chars).
limitNoMax passages to return (1-20, default 5).
queryYesNatural-language query — what passages do you want? E.g. "supply-chain risk", "fiscal year 2024 revenue", "drug interactions with warfarin".

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Discloses internal mechanics: 'BGE-base-en embeddings + cosine over 500-char overlapping windows; cap is 200K chars (longer inputs are truncated and flagged).' Also mentions output includes offsets for verification. No contradiction 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.

Conciseness5/5

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

Efficient paragraph front-loaded with purpose, each sentence adding value (usage, technical details, pairing). No wasted words.

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?

Covers inputs, constraints, output format (top-N passages with offsets and scores), and pairing advice. Despite no output schema, description is comprehensive for the tool's complexity.

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. Description adds value with example queries and clarifies text size limit. Enhances understanding beyond 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 performs semantic search inside a fetched record, with specific examples (SEC 10-K, article, long tool result). It distinguishes from siblings like ask_pipeworx_grounded by noting when the record is too large for the prompt.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly says 'Use when the record is too big to cram into the prompt' and pairs with ask_pipeworx_grounded, providing clear when-to/not-to-use guidance and alternative tool.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Multiple tools overlap conceptually, e.g., ask_pipeworx / ask_pipeworx_beta / ask_pipeworx_grounded / deep_research all perform data retrieval, and bet_research / polymarket_edges / polymarket_arbitrage cover prediction markets with unclear boundaries. This overlap forces agents to carefully read descriptions to pick the right tool.

Naming Consistency3/5

Naming is mostly snake_case but inconsistent in pattern: some are verb_noun (compare_entities), some are noun_verb (ai_visibility_check), and some are bare nouns (ipv4) or bare verbs (forget). While readable, the lack of a uniform pattern reduces predictability.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is high for a single server, especially given the server name 'Ipify' which implies a simple IP lookup service. The broad range (from memory ops to prediction market analysis) suggests the tool set is a collection of utilities rather than a coherent, scoped API.

Completeness2/5

The tool set lacks focus: for a server named 'Ipify', basic IP geolocation or ASN lookup is missing. As a general toolkit, it covers many areas superficially but has significant gaps (e.g., no tools for updating or deleting data, no domain-specific lifecycle).
