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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, so the safety profile is covered structurally. The phrase "This cannot be undone" reinforces the irreversibility in user-facing terms and "owned by the connected account" hints at an authorization scope, but the description adds little beyond the annotations.

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, zero waste, with the destructive consequence front-loaded in the second sentence. Nothing superfluous.

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?

No output schema is needed for a deletion tool and annotations cover the safety profile, so the core is adequate. However, the description never mentions the mandatory confirmPermanentDeletion pre-condition, leaving the agent to infer the two-step confirmation flow from the schema alone.

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 coverage is 50%: confirmPermanentDeletion is documented in the schema, but storyId is not, and the description says nothing about either parameter. It notably omits the required explicit user-confirmation gate, which is a meaningful workflow constraint the agent needs to satisfy before calling.

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) plus resource (story) and adds an ownership scope ("owned by the connected account"), which helps distinguish it from remove_story_from_world among the siblings. It does not explicitly name or contrast with that sibling, so it stops short of a 5.

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?

No when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance. It says the action is permanent but never tells the agent to prefer remove_story_from_world (unpublish) or other alternatives when the user only wants the story hidden rather than destroyed.

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