Well

Delete company

well_delete_company

Destructive

Delete a company from the current workspace (soft delete).

Use this tool when the user asks to delete, remove, or archive a company.

REQUIRED: company_id

This soft-deletes the company and its company_person relationships. Linked people records themselves are NOT deleted. Invoices and documents referencing the company are preserved.

Returns { success: true, company_id } on success, or { success: false, error } on failure.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`company_id`	Yes	The UUID of the company to delete (required)
`workspace_id`	No	Target workspace. Omit when the token authorizes one workspace. Required when it authorizes several — a write lands in exactly one workspace and this call would not say which.
`conversation_id`	No	The conversation id returned by the previous Well result, in its meta under well/conversation_id, in its structuredContent, or in its JSON text block. Pass it back on every call in the same conversation, including a call a card makes, so the chosen workspace and the earlier answers still apply. It decides the conversation on its own: nothing the host states about the session replaces it. Omit it only on the first call of a conversation.
`idempotency_key`	No	Optional client-supplied key. A retried write with the same key returns the original result instead of re-applying the operation.

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema

Name	Required	Description
`error`	No
`success`	Yes
`company_id`	No
`conversation_id`	No	The conversation this result belongs to. Pass it back as the conversation_id argument on every later Well call in the same conversation.
`conversation_id_note`	No	Present only when the server opened a fresh lane, stating that no choice recorded earlier was read.
`conversation_id_source`	No	Where the conversation id came from: the host's own request meta, the caller's argument, or a fresh lane the server opened.

A4.4/5.0

Behavior5/5

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

Annotations already mark destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, but the description goes far beyond by detailing the soft-delete semantics, what is deleted (company and company_person relationships), what is preserved (people, invoices, documents), and the exact return shape. This is rich behavioral disclosure.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is front-loaded with the core purpose and usage trigger, followed by behavior and return values. It is concise, though the 'REQUIRED: company_id' line is slightly redundant given the schema's required list. Overall efficient and well-structured.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the destructive action, the description covers what happens to related data, what is preserved, and the success/failure return format. The output schema exists, parameters are fully described in the schema, and annotations carry the safety profile. Nothing an agent needs to call this tool correctly is missing.

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%, with all four parameters (company_id, workspace_id, conversation_id, idempotency_key) well-documented in the schema. The description adds no new parameter-level meaning beyond restating company_id as required, which is already in the schema. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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

Purpose5/5

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

States exactly what it does: 'Delete a company from the current workspace (soft delete).' The verb 'delete', resource 'company', scope 'current workspace', and the soft-delete qualifier differentiate it from sibling delete tools like well_delete_invoice and well_delete_person.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives explicit triggers: 'Use this tool when the user asks to delete, remove, or archive a company.' It clearly identifies the intended context and required parameter, though it does not explicitly name alternatives or exclusion cases. Clear context without exclusions.

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