Subscribe to Alerts

subscribe
Idempotent

Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream. Returns the new subscription id. Requires a Pipeworx OAuth account (anonymous + BYO cannot persist subscriptions). Supported types: "sec_8k" (8-K filings matching ticker + item codes — e.g. items:["5.02"] = officer change), "polymarket_edge" (Polymarket↔Kalshi cross-venue mispricings — params:{topic:"fed"}), "fred_series" (new FRED observations — params:{series_id:"UNRATE"}). Delivery channels: feed (always on — pull via recent_alerts or GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json), and optionally email (set delivery:{email:"you@x.com"}) or sms (delivery:{sms:"+15551234567"} — phone must be verified at /account first; 10/day cap).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeYesSubscription type.
paramsYesType-specific filter. sec_8k: {ticker:"AAPL", items?:["5.02","1.01"]}. polymarket_edge: {topic:"fed", min_spread_bps?:500}. fred_series: {series_id:"UNRATE"}. patent_grant: {applicant:"Apple Inc."}. clinical_trial: {sponsor?:"Pfizer", condition?:"lung cancer", phase?:"PHASE3"} (sponsor or condition required).
deliveryNoOptional delivery channels in addition to the always-on persistent feed. {email:"you@x.com"} sends a templated alert per fired event. {sms:"+15551234567"} sends an SMS per event — must match the verified phone on the caller's account (verify at https://pipeworx.io/account first; 10/day cap). {webhook:"https://..."} POSTs each event JSON to your endpoint, HMAC-signed — the response includes delivery.webhook_secret (whsec_…) ONCE; verify X-Pipeworx-Signature = sha256 HMAC of "<X-Pipeworx-Timestamp>.<raw body>". Auto-disabled after 10 consecutive failing runs.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations indicate readOnlyHint=false, openWorldHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false. Description aligns with non-readOnly (creates a resource) and adds key behavioral details: requires OAuth, returns subscription ID, supports multiple types and delivery channels, with specific constraints (e.g., SMS 10/day cap). Does not contradict annotations.

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?

The description is fairly long but well-structured: it opens with the core purpose, then explains requirements, types, and delivery channels in a logical order. Every sentence adds value, though a few minor redundancies could be trimmed. It is front-loaded and clear.

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?

Given the tool's complexity (multiple types, delivery channels, no output schema), the description covers the main return value (subscription ID), required auth, type-specific parameters, and delivery behavior. It lacks explicit error handling or failure scenarios, but overall provides sufficient context for an agent to use it correctly.

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

Parameters5/5

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

Schema coverage is 100%, but the description substantially enriches each parameter. It provides type-specific examples for 'params' (e.g., sec_8k with items codes) and detailed delivery options with validation requirements and webhook signing details. This goes well beyond the schema's minimal 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?

The description clearly states the tool's purpose: 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream.' It uses a specific verb ('Create') and resource ('subscription'), and distinguishes from sibling tools like 'list_subscriptions', 'unsubscribe', and 'recent_alerts' by its focus on creation.

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 provides explicit prerequisites (Pipeworx OAuth account; anonymous/BYO cannot persist) and details on when to use it (for setting up monitoring). It implicitly distinguishes from siblings but lacks explicit 'when not to use' guidance. Overall, it offers clear context for appropriate usage.

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

A3.6/5.0
Disambiguation2/5

Several tool clusters overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all route questions to data sources; polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker, polymarket_fill_risk, polymarket_kalshi_spread, and bet_research all target prediction-market analysis; and all_cases plus convert_case both handle text-case conversion. An agent will struggle to pick the right tool without deep reading.

Naming Consistency3/5

Nearly all names are lowercase with underscores, but the morphological pattern is mixed: some are verb_noun (convert_case, compare_entities, resolve_entity, scan_dependency), many are bare nouns (entity_profile, pipeworx_trending, polymarket_edges, all_cases), and a few are single-word verbs (forget, recall, remember). Still readable, but not a predictable verb_noun convention throughout.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is far too many for a server named 'Textcase' — only all_cases and convert_case relate to the apparent purpose. The remaining 31 constitute a sprawling assortment of data research, prediction markets, memory, subscriptions, and feedback tools that have nothing to do with text casing, making the count feel bloated and misaligned.

Completeness2/5

For the stated text-case domain, the two converters cover the basic transformations but lack supporting operations like case detection, batch processing, or custom case definitions. More fundamentally, the tool surface is incoherent: the majority of tools serve foreign domains (Pipeworx data, Polymarket, subscriptions), so there is no clear domain to evaluate for completeness, and obvious gaps exist within whatever the server is meant to be.
