Idempotent

Save data the agent will need to reuse later — across this conversation or across sessions. Use when you discover something worth carrying forward (a resolved ticker, a target address, a user preference, a research subject) so you don't have to look it up again. Stored as a key-value pair scoped by your identifier. Authenticated users get persistent memory; anonymous sessions retain memory for 24 hours. Pair with recall to retrieve later, forget to delete.

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already indicate non-read-only, idempotent, non-destructive. Description adds scoping by identifier and explicit persistence rules for authenticated vs anonymous users, beyond annotation content.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded with verb and purpose, no redundant information. Every sentence provides value.

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?

With no output schema, description fully explains storage mechanism, scoping, and retrieval methods. Complete for a simple store 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 naming conventions (e.g., 'subject_property') and value type (any text), enhancing schema meaning.

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 the tool saves data for reuse across conversations/sessions, with specific examples. Distinguishes from siblings recall and forget.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines5/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Explicitly describes when to use (discover something worth carrying forward) and pairs with recall and forget. Addresses scoping and persistence duration.

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

ask_pipeworx and ask_pipeworx_beta are explicitly described as functionally identical right now, creating direct ambiguity. The six polymarket tools (edges, arbitrage, edge_tracker, fill_risk, kalshi_spread, bet_research) have blurred boundaries for prediction-market tasks, and ai_visibility_check vs scan_competitor_ai_presence is a wrapper relationship. Only the memory trio and subscription lifecycle are cleanly distinct.

Naming Consistency2/5

Naming follows multiple conventions with no global pattern: bare verbs (remember, recall, forget, subscribe), product-prefixed verbs (ask_pipeworx, pipeworx_feedback), noun phrases (entity_profile, deep_research, recent_changes), and verb_noun snake_case (discover_tools, validate_claim). There are consistent pockets (the polymarket_* family, the TheGamesDB get_/list_/search_ verbs), but the overall mix across 35 tools is inconsistent.

Tool Count2/5

35 tools exceeds the 25-tool threshold for a heavy server, and the count is wildly disproportionate to the server's stated identity: only 4 of 35 tools relate to TheGamesDB while 31 belong to an unrelated Pipeworx data/prediction-market suite. The game database would justify roughly 5-10 tools, so the bulk of this surface is out of scope for the server name.

Completeness3/5

The Pipeworx portion is genuinely thorough — discovery, grounded querying, entity resolution, claim validation, subscription lifecycle, memory, and feedback form a coherent coverage. However, the namesake TheGamesDB surface is thin: search, get-by-id, list genres, and list platforms, with no games-by-platform/genre browsing, no media/screenshots beyond front boxart, and no updates feed. The set as a whole covers multiple unrelated domains with no single complete lifecycle.
