Delete bin

delete_bin

Delete a bin. Its media and sub-bins move up one level; nothing is removed from the project.

B3.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations declare destructiveHint=false, and the description earns that by explaining that media and sub-bins are reparented one level up and nothing is deleted from the project. This is real context beyond the structured fields, though it does not cover failure behavior (e.g., nonexistent binId) or permission requirements.

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?

Two tight sentences with zero filler, and the outcome of the deletion is front-loaded right after the action. Every clause carries information an agent needs.

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?

For a simple two-parameter mutation with no output schema, the description covers the one surprising behavior (contents are reparented, not deleted). Only minor gaps remain, such as error behavior and whether the bin's parent context matters.

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?

With only 50% schema description coverage, the required binId is undocumented in both the schema and the description, and the description adds no meaning about how to obtain or format it. The only documented parameter, projectId, already has its default explained in the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Delete a bin') and immediately clarifies the effect on contents, so an agent can distinguish it from delete_folder or delete_clips. It stops short of explicitly naming those siblings as alternatives.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no guidance on when to use delete_bin versus delete_folder, delete_clips, or remove_media, nor any stated preconditions. Usage is only implied by the tool name.

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