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".

A4.7/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes beyond annotations by disclosing embedding model (BGE-base-en), chunking strategy (500-char overlapping windows), character cap (200K chars with truncation flag), and output format (offsets, scores). No contradiction with annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, etc.).

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?

Three sentences front-load the core purpose and key details. Every sentence adds necessary context without redundancy. Efficient structure.

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?

Given no output schema, the description sufficiently explains return format (passages with offsets/scores) and internal mechanics (embedding, windowing, cap). Also notes pairing with sibling tool. Comprehensive for a search tool.

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 has 100% coverage. Description adds value by giving concrete examples for text (SEC 10-K body) and query (supply-chain risk), and specifying max chars for text. Semantic context beyond schema descriptions.

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?

Description clearly states it performs semantic search inside a fetched record, returning top-N passages with offsets and scores. Differentiates from sibling tools like ask_pipeworx_grounded by specifying that it operates on already-fetched text and pairs with that tool.

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?

Explicitly states when to use ('when record is too big to cram into prompt') and provides a complementary tool (ask_pipeworx_grounded). Lacks explicit 'when not to use' guidance, but overall context is clear.

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

A3.5/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tool clusters have unclear boundaries: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all route questions across the same 5,756-tool catalog, and ask_pipeworx_beta is explicitly identical to ask_pipeworx right now. The polymarket_* family also overlaps heavily (edges, arbitrage, fill_risk, kalshi_spread all surface tradeable discrepancies), and entity_profile/compare_entities/recent_changes all fan out to overlapping SEC/news/patent sources. Descriptions are detailed, but the set contains intentional near-duplicates that make selection genuinely ambiguous.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming follows no single convention: get_drivers/get_laps/get_meetings/get_sessions use verb_noun, polymarket_arbitrage/polymarket_edges are noun-phrase domain prefixes, pipeworx_feedback/pipeworx_trending use a vendor prefix, remember/recall/forget are bare verbs, and ask_pipeworx variants mix with action phrases like discover_tools, deep_research, and validate_claim. The inconsistency makes it harder to predict related tool names.

Tool Count2/5

35 tools is heavy, and the count is severely mismatched to the server name 'Openf1': only 4 of 35 tools (get_drivers, get_laps, get_meetings, get_sessions) are actually F1-related, while the other 31 are a general-purpose Pipeworx data/prediction-market platform. The number itself could be reasonable for a broad data hub, but for an F1 server it is bloated with unrelated functionality.

Completeness2/5

For the stated F1 domain, the surface is severely incomplete: it covers meetings, sessions, drivers, and laps but lacks race results, qualifying results, standings, pit stops, or constructor data — major gaps for any F1 use case. The Pipeworx side is far more complete (query, research, entities, verification, memory, subscriptions), but that completeness doesn't serve the server's apparent purpose.
