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.

TDQS

A4.6/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive. Description adds rich detail: response structure (tracked, expired, snapshot_dates), edge_pp_net sign interpretation, decay calculation, TTL limits, gaps in snapshot data. No contradictions.

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?

Dense but well-organized: purpose first, then output fields, then limitations. Every sentence adds value, though slightly verbose.

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, so description fully explains return structure, edge cases (expired, gaps), and caveats (TTL, decay from daily closes). Comprehensive for a telemetry 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 covers both parameters with descriptions. Description adds context: 'lookback', 'snapshot family', and default values (14 days, 1wk). This clarifies the role beyond schema.

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?

Clearly states it provides edge persistence and decay telemetry from daily snapshots. Answers specific questions about edge duration and shrinkage. Distinct from sibling tool polymarket_edges which likely gives current snapshot.

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?

Describes the use case of distinguishing fresh vs. old wide edges. Implicitly tells when to use, but does not explicitly contrast with alternatives like polymarket_edges.

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

Many tools have overlapping purposes, e.g., multiple ask_pipeworx variants, bet_research vs. polymarket_edges, and several entity/profile tools. An agent could easily misselect between similar tools despite detailed descriptions.

Naming Consistency2/5

Tool names are inconsistent: some use snake_case (ask_pipeworx), some camelCase (ai_visibility_check), and verbs vary (ask, bet, compare, scan, validate). No clear naming convention is followed across the set.

Tool Count3/5

With 34 tools, the server covers a broad range of functionalities for a platform like Pipeworx. While each tool seems justified, the count is on the higher end, potentially overwhelming for simpler use cases.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers data retrieval, memory, subscriptions, Polymarket analysis, and utility functions comprehensively. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct user management) but core workflows are well-supported.
