Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, openWorldHint=true, and readOnlyHint=false. The description adds valuable scope context by specifying that the removal is only from the Xyle account and explicitly does not delete external data, which helps the agent understand what is actually destroyed.
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 with zero waste. The core action is front-loaded, and the scope caveat follows immediately.
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?
Given the low complexity, a fully documented single parameter, and rich annotations covering the safety profile, the description is nearly complete. It could be improved by explicitly distinguishing this from related tools like delete_wordpress_site, but it covers what the agent needs for a correct basic invocation.
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?
The schema fully documents the single required parameter site_id, including its description. The description does not add any syntax, format, or constraint details beyond what the schema already provides, so the baseline of 3 applies.
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?
The description states a specific verb ('Remove') and resource ('a website from your Xyle account'), making the core purpose clear. However, it does not explicitly differentiate this tool from siblings such as delete_wordpress_site or create_site.
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 description gives no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no alternatives. The statement 'This does not delete any external data' is a scope clarification rather than usage guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
