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

Beyond the destructiveHint annotation, the description discloses two important behaviors: an authorization constraint ('owner only') and a cascading side effect on projects. These are exactly the details an agent needs to predict the impact of invoking this tool.

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?

The description is two short clauses with no filler. It front-loads the action and resource, then immediately provides the most decision-relevant behavioral details.

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 single-parameter destructive tool with a complete schema, an output schema, and destructiveHint/openWorldHint annotations, the description covers permission and cascade behavior. Nothing essential is missing for an agent to invoke this tool correctly.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already fully documents orgId as a UUID. The description does not add additional parameter semantics, but it does not need to because the schema carries the burden.

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 ('Delete'), a specific resource ('an organization'), and adds two key qualifiers: 'owner only' and 'Cascades to its projects.' This clearly distinguishes it from sibling delete tools like delete_project and delete_document.

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 clear usage context by requiring owner-only invocation and implicitly warns that the operation affects projects as well. It does not explicitly name alternative tools for deleting projects or documents, but the resource scoping makes the appropriate choice obvious.

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