TDQS

C2.7/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds nothing beyond that — it does not mention the irreversible deletion of the endpoint, whether in-flight deliveries stop, or the preview/confirm workflow that the title hints at.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is one short sentence with no verbosity, but brevity here is under-specification rather than efficiency: the single sentence duplicates the tool name and front-loads nothing useful.

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?

Because the schema fully documents the two-step dry_run/confirm protocol and annotations carry destructiveness and idempotency, the agent can call this correctly despite the bare description. The remaining gap — no explicit instruction in the description to show the preview to the user before confirming — is partly covered by the confirm parameter's own text.

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 description coverage is 100% and the schema itself documents confirm, dry_run, and webhook_id in detail, including the intended preview-then-confirm sequence. The description adds no parameter 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.

Purpose3/5

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

"Delete a webhook" states a verb and a resource, but it is essentially a restatement of the tool name with no scope, no differentiation from toggle_webhook, update_webhook, or test_webhook, and no indication of what a webhook deletion entails. An agent knows the general action but nothing about boundaries.

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?

The description gives no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no alternatives. The genuinely useful routing information (preview with dry_run, then confirm) exists only inside the parameter descriptions, not in the description itself.

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