Delete Recurring Post

delete_recurring_post
Destructive

Delete a recurring post: the series stops for good and its upcoming SCHEDULED post is deleted. Posts that already went out are kept. Prefer pause_recurring_post when the user may want the series back. To skip a single date, delete that occurrence with delete_post instead; the series continues. Ids outside the workspace (the current one unless workspaceId names another) return "Recurring post not found". Returns { deleted: true }. Irreversible.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesRecurring post ID to delete, from list_recurring_posts
workspaceIdNoWorkspace to act in: an id from list_workspaces. Omit to act in the workspace list_workspaces marks current. Use the same workspaceId for every call about the same workspace, since ids from one workspace (accounts, posts, uploads) do not exist in another

Output Schema

resultNoAn object with deleted: true once the recurring post is removed.

A4.7/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, and the description goes further by specifying exactly what is destroyed (series + upcoming scheduled post, past posts retained), that the action is irreversible, and that out-of-workspace ids return "Recurring post not found". It also reports the return shape ({ deleted: true }). Rates just under 5 only because it omits permission/auth requirements and any cascade effects on analytics or linked drafts.

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 consequence and then layers routing guidance, error behaviour, return value, and irreversibility in short declarative clauses. No sentence is filler, despite covering a lot of ground.

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 destructive two-parameter tool with an output schema present, the description supplies everything the agent needs: scope of deletion, irreversibility, sibling routing, and error semantics. Return-value explanation is redundant with the output schema but harmless.

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 both id and workspaceId are already documented, giving a baseline of 3. The description adds meaning beyond that by explaining the workspace-scoping consequence tied to workspaceId (ids outside the current workspace yield "Recurring post not found"), which helps the agent reason about cross-workspace misuse.

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 (Delete) and resource (recurring post), and immediately defines the scope of the deletion: the whole series stops permanently and the upcoming scheduled post is removed while already-published posts are kept. It distinguishes itself from the near neighbours delete_post and pause_recurring_post by name without the agent needing to open their schemas.

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 rules in both directions: prefer pause_recurring_post when the user might want the series back, and use delete_post to skip a single occurrence so the series continues. It effectively covers when-to-use and when-not-to-use with the alternatives named.

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