delete_appUse this when you want to permanently delete an app. Use only on explicit user request. This is irreversible; after deletion, status checks will return not found.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already indicate destructive and non-idempotent. The description adds the consequence of irreversibility and that status checks will return not found, providing context beyond annotations.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Three short sentences, front-loaded with purpose, each sentence adds unique value without redundancy.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a simple one-parameter destructive delete operation, the description covers purpose, usage condition, and irreversible consequence. No output schema means no return-value explanation needed.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The only parameter app_id is fully described in the schema as 'Target app id'. The description adds no param-specific details, but schema coverage is complete, so baseline 3 is appropriate.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description clearly states the tool deletes an app permanently, using a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes from sibling read/status tools and delete_app_secrets.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description explicitly states when to use ('when you want to permanently delete an app') and adds a condition ('only on explicit user request'), providing clear usage guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Most tools have distinct purposes, but the 5 secrets-related tools (create_secret_entry, delete_app_secrets, get_secret_entry_status, list_app_secrets, set_app_secrets) are numerous and could cause confusion. Similarly, deploy_app and apply_app_version both involve deployment but with different contexts. Overall, descriptions help differentiate, but some overlap remains.
The majority of tools follow verb_noun pattern (e.g., deploy_app, get_apps). However, the src_ prefix tools (src_glob, src_grep, src_read) deviate by using a noun prefix instead of a verb, creating a slight inconsistency. Otherwise, naming is clear and predictable.
With 21 tools, the server covers deployment, domain management, secrets, source inspection, and asset upload without being overly large. The count is well-scoped for a deployment platform, each tool serving a necessary role.
Core workflows (deploy, status, secrets, source inspection) are well-covered. However, there are minor gaps: no tool to list available templates or manage app metadata beyond deployment. The surface is mostly complete but could benefit from a few additional administrative tools.
