Recent Alerts

recent_alerts
Read-onlyIdempotent

Pull fired events from your subscription feed. Returns the most recent alerts the evaluator has written to your persisted feed — each carries source, citation_uri (pipeworx:// when available), and the raw event payload. Filter by type (e.g. "sec_8k") and/or since (ISO timestamp). Set mark_read:true to flag returned events read so the next call only shows newer ones. Polls work fine; the same feed is also at GET registry.pipeworx.io/alerts.json for scripts and dashboards.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
typeNoOptional — filter to one subscription type.
limitNoMax events to return (1-200, default 50).
sinceNoOptional ISO timestamp — return events fired_at >= this time.
mark_readNoFlag the returned events read in the same call (default false).
unread_onlyNoReturn only events where read_at is null (default false).

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate readOnlyHint=true (safe read), idempotentHint=true, and destructiveHint=false. The description adds valuable behavioral detail: setting mark_read:true flags events as read so subsequent calls return only newer events. This goes beyond annotation info.

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?

The description is a single, dense paragraph of three sentences. It front-loads the core purpose, then returns info, filters, behavioral flags, and a note about alternative access. Every sentence adds value without fluff.

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?

Despite having no output schema, the description compensates by specifying return fields (source, citation_uri, payload). It covers all key aspects: what it returns, filtering, side effects of mark_read, and polling suitability. For a tool with 5 optional parameters, this is complete.

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 all 5 parameters with descriptions, achieving 100% coverage. The description adds meaning beyond schema: it gives an example for type ('sec_8k'), specifies ISO format for since, and explains the read-marking effect of mark_read. This enriches the parameter semantics.

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: 'Pull fired events from your subscription feed.' It details the return fields (source, citation_uri, payload) and mentions filter options, distinguishing it from siblings like list_subscriptions which manage subscriptions rather than retrieve events.

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 notes that 'Polls work fine' and provides an alternative raw endpoint for scripts/dashboards, giving context on when to use this tool. However, it does not explicitly state when not to use it or directly compare with siblings, so a slight deduction applies.

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

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation3/5

Most tools have distinct, well-scoped purposes, but several question-answering/research tools sit close together: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, and validate_claim can all be selected for factual questions. The descriptions are detailed enough to reduce ambiguity, but ask_pipeworx_beta is currently identical to ask_pipeworx, and discovery helpers like discover_tools, suggest_questions, and pipeworx_trending also overlap somewhat.

Naming Consistency4/5

Names are uniformly snake_case and mostly follow a verb_noun pattern such as build_url, list_subscriptions, resolve_entity, and validate_claim. The polymarket_* and pipeworx_* prefixes form a readable convention, though a few names like pipeworx_feedback and polymarket_arbitrage are noun-phrases rather than verb-first actions.

Tool Count2/5

34 tools is well past the 25+ threshold where even a broad platform starts to feel bloated. The set mixes data research, prediction-market tooling, URL utilities, memory, subscriptions, feedback, and npm scanning, which would be more coherently split across focused servers.

Completeness3/5

The core research workflows are thoroughly covered: routing, grounded answers, deep research, entity resolution, comparisons, claim validation, discovery, alerts, and memory all exist. However, the URL utility and dependency-scanning side domains feel tacked on and incomplete, and there is no dedicated tool to fetch an arbitrary pipeworx:// citation record even though such URIs are returned throughout.
