Remove a Route from a Domain Listener

remove_domain_route
DestructiveIdempotent

Delete a single route entry from a port listener. Traffic that matched this route returns 404 on the affected listener until a new matching route is configured.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
orgNoOrganization slug.
domainYesFully qualified domain name.
portNumberYesExisting listener port number to target.
routeIdentifierYesIdentifier for an existing route. Route identity is path matcher + host matcher (Joi uniqueRoute) — include the route's hostPrefix/hostRegex when it has one, or a same-path route on a different host is matched instead.

Output Schema

okYes
dataNoThe full result. Read this, not only the summary.

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, readOnlyHint=false, and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds real value beyond that by explaining the operational consequence: affected traffic returns 404 until a new matching route is configured. It stops short of covering permissions or the exact identity-matching hazard (which the schema handles).

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 tight sentences, both front-loaded and informative: the action first, then the consequence. Nothing is redundant with the title or annotations.

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?

An output schema exists, so return values need no explanation, and the description covers the destructive effect on live traffic. It is close to complete, only missing any note on scoping (org) or required permissions for a destructive operation.

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% and the nested routeIdentifier object already documents the host/path matcher identity rule in detail. The description adds no parameter-level information, so the baseline of 3 applies.

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?

States a specific verb and resource with scope: 'Delete a single route entry from a port listener.' This cleanly distinguishes it from add_domain_route and update_domain_route by verb. It does not, however, name or contrast itself with those siblings explicitly.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage is implied by the verb and scope (remove one existing route), but there is no explicit when-to-use guidance, no mention of prerequisites, and no routing to alternatives such as remove_domain_port or update_domain_route. The statement about the 404 consequence is behavioral, not usage guidance.

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