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).

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint and idempotentHint, but the description adds valuable behavioral details such as the mark_read flag's effect on future calls and the returned fields. 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?

The description is concise (5 sentences), front-loaded with the main purpose, and each sentence adds value without redundancy. No unnecessary details.

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?

With 5 parameters and no output schema, the description covers return fields and usage patterns well. However, it could briefly mention pagination or rate limits for completeness.

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%, but the description adds meaning beyond the schema by providing examples (e.g., filter by type 'sec_8k') and explaining the effect of mark_read=true. This clarifies usage beyond what the schema alone provides.

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 uses a specific verb ('Pull') and resource ('fired events from your subscription feed'), clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like 'recent_changes' or 'subscribe'. It also details what the tool returns (source, citation_uri, raw event payload).

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 explains that polling works fine and mentions an alternative endpoint for scripts/dashboards, giving context on when to use the tool vs. direct API access. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use this tool.

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

A3.8/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are currently identical in behavior, creating direct overlap. Additionally, the five query/research tools (ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, validate_claim, bet_research) and six Polymarket tools have heavily overlapping boundaries that require reading long descriptions to disambiguate.

Naming Consistency3/5

Names are uniformly snake_case and mostly readable, with consistent domain prefixes (polymarket_*, pipeworx_*) and a verb_noun majority (get_paper, search_papers, resolve_entity). However, bare-verb memory tools (remember, recall, forget) and adjective-noun names (recent_alerts, trending_papers, deep_research) break the dominant convention, making the set mixed though not chaotic.

Tool Count2/5

At 35 tools, this exceeds the 25+ threshold for 'too many,' and several are near-duplicates or overlapping query modes (ask_pipeworx vs ask_pipeworx_beta vs ask_pipeworx_grounded). The server bundles paper search, a universal data router, prediction-market analytics, memory, subscriptions, dependency scanning, and AI visibility into one surface, which feels over-scoped.

Completeness4/5

The surface is quite thorough for its broad domain: querying has grounded/deep/meta variants, companies have profile/compare/change/claim tools, prediction markets have research/edges/arbitrage/fill-risk/spread tracking, and subscriptions/memory have full lifecycles. Minor gaps exist (no full pack catalog listing, no direct fetch-by-URI tool, no paper leaderboards), but agents can work around them via discover_tools/ask_pipeworx.
