Delete a question

delete_ask
Idempotent

Remove a question from the Ask history (restore_ask puts it back). Needs the "account" scope.

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=false, idempotentHint=true and destructiveHint=false, and the description adds genuinely new context: the deletion is reversible via restore_ask and requires the "account" scope. It does not describe what happens to a question's answer/transcript on removal, but the added auth and reversibility details make this above baseline.

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?

Two short clauses, front-loaded with the action and followed by reversibility and permission. No filler; every clause adds information.

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

Completeness3/5

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

For a one-parameter mutation with annotations and no output schema this is close to sufficient, but the unexplained job_id and the unstated effect on an associated answer leave a gap an agent will hit at call time.

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

Parameters2/5

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

Schema description coverage is 0% and the single parameter job_id is never mentioned in the description. An agent gets no hint whether job_id is the question id, an answer job id, or where to obtain it (list_ask_history), which is a real ambiguity given the tool speaks of "questions" but the param is named job_id.

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?

Specific verb plus resource ("Remove a question from the Ask history") with the scope of the effect stated, and it names the inverse operation restore_ask, so an agent can distinguish it from the sibling without opening either schema.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

It gives the undo path ("restore_ask puts it back") and the required permission ("account" scope), which is solid routing context. It stops short of explicit when-not-to-use guidance, e.g. that deletion is permanent after some window or that list_ask_history should be used to find the id first.

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