B3.4/5.0
Behavior3/5

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 covered. The description adds the useful irreversibility warning ('This cannot be undone') but says nothing about what happens to an in-progress maintenance window or any linked monitors, which is the main residual unknown for a delete.

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 sentences, no padding, with the destructive consequence front-loaded right after the action. Every sentence carries information.

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 one-parameter delete with full annotation coverage and no output schema, the description is nearly sufficient. The only gap is the relationship to vs_maintenance_cancel, which matters because both tools target the same resource.

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?

There is a single required parameter with 100% schema description coverage ('Maintenance window id.'), so the schema fully documents it. The description adds nothing beyond that, which is the expected baseline when the schema does the work.

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

Purpose4/5

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

The description states a specific verb and resource (delete a maintenance window) and adds that the underlying record is removed. However, it does not distinguish itself from the very close sibling vs_maintenance_cancel, leaving the agent to infer the difference between deleting and cancelling a window.

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?

There is no explicit guidance on when to use this versus vs_maintenance_cancel or vs_maintenance_update. For a destructive tool that sits next to a non-destructive 'cancel' sibling, this omission is meaningful rather than trivial.

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