WHAT IT DOES

What suggest_questions does on 19hz

AI agents call suggest_questions to retrieve information from 19hz without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`topic`	string	—	Optional focus area: finance \| pharma \| economics \| real-estate \| betting \| weather \| government \| science \| news. Omit for a cross-category spread.

Parameters from the server's own tool schema.

RISK

Why suggest_questions is rated Low

suggest_questions is an onboarding and discovery tool that retrieves and displays example queries and metadata about available tools. It has no capability to modify, execute, delete, or manipulate data. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI could only be given incorrect ideas about what tools exist or how to use them, but the tool itself cannot cause harm.

From the tool's definition Tool description indicates it "Returns category-bucketed example questions" and provides "the exact tool + argument shape that answers it, drawn from the live catalog" — purely informational/educational output with "no arguments" needed.

RECOMMENDED RULE

The rule that runs suggest_questions safely

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway: it sits between your AI agents and 19hz, and checks every tool call against a rule you set before the call runs. Nothing changes on the server itself. For suggest_questions, this is the rule to start with:

suggest_questions Allowed

suggest_questions is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

View as policy code

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "suggest_questions": {}
  }
}

ALLOW ONLY THIS TOOL → Instant setup, no code required.

The button opens the PolicyLayer dashboard: create your workspace, connect 19hz, apply this rule, and every suggest_questions call is checked against it from then on.

FAQ

Questions about suggest_questions

What does the suggest_questions tool do? +

What can I ask Pipeworx? / what is Pipeworx good for? / what can you do? / give me ideas / show me examples / getting started / what data do you have? — the onboarding entry point for an agent that just connected and wants to know what is worth asking. Returns category-bucketed example questions (company financials, drugs & clinical trials, economics, real estate, prediction markets, weather, government & patents, science & academia, news) — each with the exact tool + argument shape that answers it, drawn from the live catalog of thousands of tools. Call with no arguments for the full spread, or pass topic (e.g. "finance", "pharma", "betting") to focus. Use this FIRST when you do not yet know what Pipeworx can do for you, or to learn how to call the meta-tools (ask_pipeworx, entity_profile, compare_entities, etc.). It is categorised as a Read tool in the 19hz MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
