Delete asset

delete_asset

Destructive

Soft-delete an asset. This is reversible from the Playbook trash for a limited time.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

{
  "id": 1,
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "arguments": {
      "token": "<token>"
    },
    "name": "delete_asset"
  }
}

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`token`	Yes	Asset token
`organization`	No	Workspace slug, as returned by list_organizations. Omit it when the account has a single workspace — it is then resolved from your token. Pass it only when the account has several, or when you mean a workspace other than the obvious one.

A3.8/5.0

Behavior4/5

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

The annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=false, so the description's main added value is that this is a soft delete and is reversible from the trash for a limited time. It does not specify the actual retention window, permission requirements, or behavior when the asset is already deleted, but the core behavioral nuance is disclosed.

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?

The description is two short sentences with the operation and reversibility condition front-loaded. Every sentence adds useful information and there is no unnecessary wording.

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 simple two-parameter delete tool with a fully described schema and destructive annotations, the description is largely complete because it explains the soft-delete and limited-time trash recovery behavior. It could be stronger by naming the restoration path or clarifying the actual retention period, but nothing essential is missing for correct invocation.

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%, so the schema already explains both the required asset token and the optional workspace organization parameter. The description adds no parameter-specific meaning beyond the schema, which is the baseline when schema coverage is complete.

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?

The description states a specific verb and resource: 'Soft-delete an asset.' The word 'soft-delete' distinguishes it from permanent deletion and from sibling asset operations such as update_asset or revert_asset.

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?

It provides some context by saying the deletion is reversible from the Playbook trash for a limited time, but it gives no explicit guidance on when to use this instead of alternatives like revert_asset or other asset-management operations. The agent must infer usage from the tool name and general context.

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