Delete External Panel Configuration

delete_external_panel
Destructive

Disable the external-panel entry link for an owned BYOP study. Existing interviews remain; the provider can no longer send new respondents through this link. A repeated deletion returns 404.

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the annotations: it discloses the soft-disable effect (existing interviews remain), the operational consequence (provider can no longer send new respondents), and the repeat-call behavior (404), which aligns with and enriches idempotentHint=false and destructiveHint=true.

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 short sentences, front-loaded with the action and effect, then the side effect, then the error case. No filler.

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?

With an output schema present, return values need not be explained, and the description covers action, side effects, and error behavior. What it omits is auth/ownership specifics and how the optional organization_id changes behavior.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is only 50% – study_id has no description in the schema or here, and organization_id is documented only in the schema. The description's 'owned BYOP study' hints at ownership requirements but adds no parameter-level detail to compensate for the gap.

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?

States a specific verb and resource (disable the external-panel entry link) and immediately scopes it to an 'owned BYOP study.' The clarifying verb 'disable' plus the note that interviews remain cleanly separates it from sibling delete_* tools that remove data.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Implies the context (owned BYOP study with an external panel link) but never states when to choose this over configure_external_panel or regenerate_external_panel_token, nor any prerequisites or exclusions. Usage is inferable rather than explicit.

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