A3.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds genuine consequence context beyond annotations: 'links to it stop working' tells the agent that external links are broken as a side effect, which is meaningful destructive behavior disclosure.

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?

Very terse and front-loaded with the action and consequence. 'Free' is slightly cryptic (cost/model credit?), but the sentences are efficiently packed with 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?

For a single-parameter delete tool whose annotations fully cover the safety profile and whose sole parameter is fully schema-documented, this is nearly complete. The consequence of deletion is stated; only permission/ownership requirements are unaddressed.

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?

The single 'name' parameter is fully documented in the schema (100% coverage) including an example format ('weekly-sales'). The description adds nothing about the parameter, so per the high-coverage baseline a 3 is appropriate.

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?

Specific verb+resource ('Delete a saved view') that cleanly separates it from siblings like view_get, view_save, view_list, and view_show. It does not explicitly name a sibling, but no sibling performs deletion, so disambiguation is unambiguous.

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 guidance, no exclusion of alternatives, and no prerequisites (e.g., ownership or permissions). 'Delete a saved view' implies the action but leaves all routing and preconditions to inference.

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