Open Elevation

Recent Alerts

recent_alerts
Read-onlyIdempotent

Pull fired events from your subscription feed. Returns the most recent alerts the evaluator has written to your persisted feed — each carries source, citation_uri (pipeworx:// when available), and the raw event payload. Filter by type (e.g. "sec_8k") and/or since (ISO timestamp). Set mark_read:true to flag returned events read so the next call only shows newer ones. Polls work fine; the same feed is also at GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json for scripts and dashboards.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeNoOptional — filter to one subscription type.
limitNoMax events to return (1-200, default 50).
sinceNoOptional ISO timestamp — return events fired_at >= this time.
mark_readNoFlag the returned events read in the same call (default false).
unread_onlyNoReturn only events where read_at is null (default false).

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior1/5

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

The description contradicts the annotations: it states mark_read:true flags events as read (a write operation), but annotations include readOnlyHint=true, implying no state changes. This is a clear contradiction, so transparency score is 1 per the rubric.

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?

The description is concise and well-structured: it opens with the main purpose, details return values, explains filtering and side effects, and ends with an alternative. Every sentence adds meaningful information without redundancy.

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?

Despite no output schema, the description adequately explains return fields and behavior. It covers all key parameters and usage scenarios. However, the contradiction between readOnlyHint and mark_read slightly undermines completeness as it may confuse agents. Still, for a read-heavy tool, the description is comprehensive.

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?

Input schema has 100% description coverage, so baseline is 3. The description adds practical context beyond the schema, like the 'sec_8k' example for type and clarifying that mark_read ensures newer events on next call. This adds semantic value, raising the score to 4.

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 pulls fired events from a subscription feed, specifies the resource (alerts from persisted feed), and details what is returned (source, citation_uri, raw payload). It distinguishes itself from siblings by focusing on recent alerts and the mark_read feature, which is unique among the listed sibling tools.

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?

The description provides explicit guidance on when to use this tool (for pulling recent alerts, polling) and offers an alternative (direct HTTP GET to alerts.json for scripts/dashboards). It also explains filtering by type and since timestamp, and the mark_read behavior for subsequent calls.

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

B3.3/5.0
Disambiguation1/5

The tool set covers many unrelated domains (elevation, finance, prediction markets, AI visibility, etc.) with multiple overlapping tools per domain (e.g., three 'ask_pipeworx' variants, several 'polymarket' tools). An agent would struggle to distinguish which tool to use for a given task.

Naming Consistency2/5

Names follow no consistent pattern: some use snake_case with vague verbs (e.g., 'process', 'run'), others use descriptive but unrelated prefixes ('ai_', 'ask_pipeworx_', 'polymarket_'). There is no uniform verb_noun structure.

Tool Count3/5

With 32 tools, the count is reasonable for a large server, but the vast majority are irrelevant to the server's stated purpose (elevation). This mismatch makes the count inappropriate.

Completeness1/5

The server name 'Open Elevation' implies a focus on elevation data, yet only 2 of 32 tools (get_elevation, get_elevations) are related. There are severe gaps: no area elevation, no geocoding, no terrain analysis. The tool surface is largely off-topic.
