Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden for a destructive operation. 'Now' implies immediacy, but the description never says the deletion is irreversible, what permissions are needed, or whether a still-referenced file would break existing posts.
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?
A single short sentence with the action front-loaded and no filler. It is efficient, though the parenthetical timing note is doing double duty as usage guidance.
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 destructive, annotation-free tool with an undocumented required parameter and no output schema, the description is far too thin. It omits irreversibility, auth requirements, failure modes, and what the caller receives on success.
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?
There is one required parameter (id) with 0% schema description coverage, and the description never mentions it. 'An uploaded file' only loosely implies that the id identifies the media, leaving the agent to infer accepted formats.
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 (Delete) and resource (an uploaded file), which cleanly separates it from the check/get/upload siblings. It stops short of naming 'media' to match the tool name, but the intent is unambiguous.
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 parenthetical 'call after the post is published' hints at sequencing, but the description never states prerequisites, what happens if called too early, or why check_media/get_media are not the right siblings. Usage is implied rather than fully specified.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
