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.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Beyond annotations (readOnly, idempotent), description discloses 60-day TTL limits, snapshot gaps on cache-miss, daily-close basis for decay, signed edge_pp_net semantics, and dual metrics computed on absolute value. No annotation contradiction.

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?

Structured with ARGS/RESPONSE/LIMITS, front-loaded with purpose; every sentence conveys behavioral or response detail without filler, making the long description justified.

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, but description fully enumerates response fields (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates), their sub-fields (edge_pp_net time-series, trend, decay_pp_per_day, lifespan_days), and caveats, making tool behavior comprehensively understandable.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema covers both params fully (100% coverage): days default/clamp and window options/default. Description only repeats this info (e.g., 'window (snapshot family, default "1wk")') and adds no further parameter-specific semantics, so baseline 3 applies.

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 states 'Edge persistence and decay telemetry built from daily polymarket_edges snapshots' and poses the exact question it answers, distinguishing it from sibling polymarket_edges (current edges) by focusing on historical persistence and decay.

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?

Provides clear usage context: answers 'how long has this edge existed and is it shrinking?' and contrasts fresh vs old wide edges to illustrate when persistence matters. It implies use with polymarket_edges snapshots but does not explicitly name alternatives or exclusion scenarios.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools are near-identical in purpose: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded all route the same style of question, and the company-research tools (entity_profile, compare_entities, recent_changes) and Polymarket tools (polymarket_edges, polymarket_arbitrage, bet_research) have overlapping triggers. The long descriptions help, but an agent could easily select the wrong one.

Naming Consistency3/5

All names are snake_case and mostly readable, but conventions are mixed: some are verb-led (ask_pipeworx, resolve_entity, scan_dependency), some are noun-led (entity_profile, pipeworx_feedback, polymarket_arbitrage), and some are adjective-noun phrases (recent_changes, recent_alerts). The polymarket_* and ask_pipeworx_* families are internally consistent, but the overall set has no unifying pattern.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is high and the server bundles several unrelated domains: Pipeworx data research, prediction markets, PRIDE proteomics, memory, subscriptions, and AI-visibility checks. Each cluster is individually useful, but the aggregate surface feels over-stuffed rather than well-scoped for a single MCP server.

Completeness4/5

The main clusters are well covered: query/grounded/deep research, entity resolution/profile/compare/validate, memory CRUD, subscription lifecycle, and a rich Polymarket analytics toolkit. Minor gaps exist—PRIDE is limited to metadata search/get and there is no trade execution for prediction markets—but most workflows can be completed without dead ends.
