delete_sweepstakes

DestructiveIdempotent

Permanently delete a sweepstakes and all associated data including participants, statistics, and automations. Use fetch_sweepstakes first to get the sweepstakes_token. CRITICAL: This is a DESTRUCTIVE operation that cannot be undone. ALWAYS ask for explicit user confirmation before deleting, showing the sweepstakes name. NEVER delete multiple sweepstakes in batch or loops. If user requests bulk deletion, refuse and ask them to delete one at a time after reviewing each.

When to use

Permanently delete a sweepstakes and all associated data including participants, statistics, and automations. Use fetch_sweepstakes first to get the sweepstakes_token. CRITICAL: This is a DESTRUCTIVE operation that cannot be undone. ALWAYS ask for explicit user confirmation before deleting, showing the sweepstakes name. NEVER delete multiple sweepstakes in batch or loops. If user requests bulk deletion, refuse and ask them to delete one at a time after reviewing each.

Pre-calls required

  1. fetch_sweepstakes if the user gave you a sweepstakes name instead of a token

Parameters to validate before calling

  • sweepstakes_token (string, required) — The unique identifier (token) of the sweepstakes to delete

Notes

  • DESTRUCTIVE — IRREVERSIBLE. Always confirm with the user before calling. Explain what will be lost.

  • IRREVERSIBLE — destroys ALL associated data (participants, rules, winners, statistics)

  • ALWAYS require explicit user confirmation. Explain exactly what will be lost.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
confirmYesMust be true. Set it ONLY after the user explicitly confirmed THIS deletion in this conversation, having been told what is lost: the sweepstakes with ALL its participants, entries, statistics, rules and automations. Never assume, never carry a confirmation over from a previous item, never set it to satisfy the schema.
sweepstakes_tokenYesThe unique identifier (token) of the sweepstakes to delete

TDQS

A4.4/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already flag destructiveHint and readOnlyHint, but the description goes further by detailing irreversibility, the exact associated data destroyed, and the need for explicit confirmation. It also covers the no-batch/loop constraint, adding meaningful behavioral context beyond the annotations.

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

Conciseness2/5

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

The description is heavily duplicated: the opening paragraph is nearly repeated in the 'When to use' section, and the destructive/confirmation warnings appear multiple times. While the critical information is front-loaded, the redundancy makes it longer than necessary.

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, the description covers everything needed to call it correctly: prerequisite fetch, required token, confirmation semantics, irreversibility, and what data will be lost. No important operational context is missing.

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 documents both parameters well. The description adds little new parameter-level meaning, mostly restating the token requirement and emphasizing confirmation, which is already thoroughly described in the schema.

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 clearly states the tool permanently deletes a sweepstakes and all associated data, naming the specific resource and the destructive scope. It is easily distinguished from sibling delete tools by the explicit resource and behavior.

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?

The description gives explicit when-to-use guidance, requires a pre-call to fetch_sweepstakes to obtain the token, and states the mandatory user-confirmation workflow. It also explicitly forbids batch deletion and tells the agent how to handle bulk-deletion requests.

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