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.

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations provide minimal info (not read-only, idempotent, not destructive). The description adds critical behavioral details: account requirement, delivery constraints (SMS cap, webhook signing secret one-time return, auto-disable after 10 failures per webhook), and type-specific parameter examples. This fully compensates for the sparse 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 highly informative, with a clear front-loaded purpose followed by organized details on types and delivery. It efficiently packs necessary information without significant redundancy, though it could be slightly more concise by merging overlapping content.

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 complexity (multiple types, nested delivery options, no output schema), the description covers most aspects: auth requirements, type examples, delivery constraints, and response includes subscription ID. A minor gap is lack of mention of possible error responses or subscription management, but it is largely complete for an agent to use the 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 coverage is 100%, but the description enriches parameter meaning by providing concrete examples for each type and additional details for delivery channels (e.g., webhook HMAC signing and auto-disable). This adds value beyond the schema definitions.

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 'Create a proactive monitoring subscription to a live-data event stream' and explicitly says it returns the subscription ID. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like 'list_subscriptions' (listing) and 'unsubscribe' (deleting).

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 usage context: requires a Pipeworx OAuth account, lists supported subscription types with specific examples, and explains delivery channel options and constraints. It does not explicitly state when not to use it versus alternatives, but the context is sufficient for an AI to decide.

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

Several tool clusters overlap heavily: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, and deep_research all serve as query entry points (with ask_pipeworx_beta explicitly identical to ask_pipeworx right now); polymarket_edges, polymarket_edge_tracker, polymarket_arbitrage, polymarket_fill_risk, polymarket_kalshi_spread, and bet_research form a dense prediction-market suite; ai_visibility_check and scan_competitor_ai_presence are single vs. multi variants. An agent would frequently struggle to pick the right tool without reading long descriptions.

Naming Consistency4/5

Most tools follow a clean snake_case convention and are mostly verb_noun (generate_ulid, parse_ulid, list_subscriptions, resolve_entity, validate_claim, compare_entities), making the set predictable. Minor deviations exist (entity_profile, deep_research, bet_research, ask_pipeworx_beta) but they are still readable and don't break the overall pattern.

Tool Count2/5

33 tools is well above the 25-tool threshold for a heavy surface, and the server name 'Ulid' suggests a tiny scope that wildly mismatches the actual content. While the real domain (Pipeworx data + prediction markets) is broad, the set bundles many subdomains into one server, making navigation and selection costly.

Completeness4/5

For the actual apparent domain—structured data research, entity lookups, verification, prediction-market analysis, memory, and subscriptions—coverage is strong: query, grounded query, deep research, entity profiles, comparisons, resolution, validation, discovery, alerts, and memory tools are all present. ULID functionality is minimal but sufficient (generate + parse). Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct single-source browser beyond discover_tools) but agents can work around them.
