B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, readOnlyHint=false, so the safety profile is fully covered structurally. The word 'Permanently' reinforces irreversibility, which is modest added value, but the description says nothing about side effects (e.g. whether posts created from the template are affected), permissions required, or cross-organization consequences.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

A single front-loaded sentence with zero filler, which is well structured for scanning. It is arguably under-specified rather than concise, but nothing in it is wasted.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present and rich annotations, the description need not explain return values or safety. Still, for a destructive operation in a toolset containing archive_post/cancel_post patterns, it omits any note on irreversibility severity, confirmation needs, or what else may be orphaned — a real but bounded gap.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and both parameters already carry cross-referencing descriptions ('from list_templates', 'id from list_organizations' plus the multi-org rule). The description adds no meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline 3 applies.

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 template') and the adverb 'Permanently' signals irreversibility, so an agent can distinguish it from get_template/update_template by name alone. It stops short of any explicit sibling differentiation, but the tool name plus verb leaves little ambiguity.

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 when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance — no note that this is irreversible, no alternative such as archiving or updating the template instead. The agent must infer the entire decision context from the name and the destructiveHint annotation.

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