video.export_delete

Delete a finished video export's files (the mp4 and any SRT) now, before the automatic deletion 30 days after the export finished. Every download link for that job stops working at once; the job record stays, so the daily export limit still counts it. Refuses a job that is still rendering (SIMPLER_STUDIO_EXPORT_DELETE_ACTIVE): stop it with video.export_cancel, or follow it to the end with video.export, then delete it. Refuses an unknown job (SIMPLER_STUDIO_EXPORT_JOB_NOT_FOUND): video.export_create returns job ids. Free.

TDQS

A4.9/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Goes well beyond the bare readOnlyHint=false annotation: discloses that every download link breaks immediately, that the job record survives so the daily export limit still counts it, and names the exact error codes (SIMPLER_STUDIO_EXPORT_DELETE_ACTIVE, SIMPLER_STUDIO_EXPORT_JOB_NOT_FOUND) and that the call is free.

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?

Front-loads the destructive effect, then consequences, then refusal modes, then cost. Dense but every clause carries operational information; nothing is padding.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a single-parameter, no-output-schema destructive tool, the description covers impact, irreversibility, side effects on quota, prerequisites, and recovery alternatives — everything an agent needs to call it safely.

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

Parameters4/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% so the schema already defines job_id, but the description adds real value by telling the agent where job ids come from (video.export_create) and tying the required parameter to the failure mode it triggers.

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 ('Delete a finished video export's files') plus the exact artifacts affected (mp4 and any SRT), and it is clearly distinguishable from siblings like video.export_cancel and video.export, which it references by name.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Gives explicit routing: for a still-rendering job use video.export_cancel or video.export, for unknown ids use video.export_create. It also explains the default path (waiting 30 days) to frame why this tool exists.

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