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 known. The description reinforces irreversibility ('Permanently') and adds a mandatory user-confirmation step, which is genuinely new behavioral guidance beyond the structured fields. It does not say whether related records (time logs, etc.) are also removed.

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

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

Two short sentences, zero filler, with the destructive scope stated first and the confirmation requirement immediately after. Nothing to trim.

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

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

For a simple three-required-parameter delete with full schema coverage and no output schema, the description covers action, scope, and the confirmation safeguard. The only real gap is the effect on dependent data and any error behavior, which are not mentioned.

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

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

Schema description coverage is 100%, so both IDs and the confirm flag are already documented in the schema, establishing the baseline of 3. The phrase 'in this farm' loosely ties to farmId but adds no format, constraint, or example beyond the schema text.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

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

States a specific verb+resource ('Permanently delete a task') and scopes it ('in this farm'), so an agent knows exactly what is removed. It does not name or contrast with any sibling (e.g., complete_task, delete_calendar_event), leaving differentiation to inference.

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

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

The instruction to ask the user for confirmation first is a concrete, actionable usage rule, but it addresses workflow rather than when-to-use versus alternatives. No conditions for choosing deletion over completing or archiving a task are given.

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