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.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Adds substantial behavioral detail beyond annotations: 60-day snapshot TTL bound, decay calc from daily closes not intraday, snapshot gaps meaning no scan, and open-world snapshots written on cache-miss. This is context an agent needs to interpret results correctly, and it does not contradict the readOnly/idempotent hints.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

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

Well-structured with clear sections (purpose, args, response, limits) and front-loaded with the core question. It is somewhat long, but each section earns its place given the lack of an output schema; justifiable for a tool with this complexity.

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?

Without an output schema, the description fully documents the return shape (tracked[], expired[], snapshot_dates[]), field semantics, and limitations. It also covers the two parameters and relevant edge cases, making it self-sufficient for an agent to invoke correctly.

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 description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description restates defaults and families but adds no new semantic detail beyond what the schema already contains (days lookback, window family).

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?

Purpose is explicit: 'Edge persistence and decay telemetry' with a specific verb+resource. It clearly distinguishes from sibling polymarket_edges by describing itself as built from daily snapshots and answering a unique question about edge age 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?

Clear context is provided: the tool answers when an edge's persistence matters, implying use for assessing historical edge strength rather than current edge discovery. However, it does not explicitly name alternatives or give when-not-to-use guidance, so it falls short of a 5.

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

A3.7/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tools are near-duplicates: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, and ask_pipeworx_grounded all route questions to the same underlying toolset with only minor differences. Additionally, the five polymarket_* tools overlap significantly in purpose, and the mix of Storting parliament tools with a general-purpose data platform creates confusion about which tool is appropriate.

Naming Consistency2/5

Tool names use snake_case but with inconsistent conventions. Some are verb-first (get_, list_, discover_, validate_), while others are noun-first (entity_profile, bet_research, recent_alerts). There are predictable prefixes like ask_pipeworx and polymarket_, but overall the naming pattern is not uniform, making it harder to predict tool names.

Tool Count2/5

With 38 tools, the count exceeds the 25-tool threshold for 'too many.' Many tools are unrelated to the server name 'Storting No' (which implies a Norwegian parliament focus), and the broad range of data-research and prediction-market tools feels bloated for the apparent scope. A smaller, more focused set would improve coherence.

Completeness3/5

The Storting-related tools cover the main parliamentary entities (cases, parties, representatives, sessions, votes) and include an export fallback for any additional data.stortinget.no resource. The Pipeworx side has meta-tools (ask, discover, suggest) and specialized analyses (entity_profile, validate_claim, polymarket_*). However, there are notable gaps, such as no direct tool for searching parliamentary speeches or committee documents without relying on the generic export, and the mixed domains leave some workflows incomplete.
