Agent ID — Revoke

agentid_revoke
DestructiveIdempotent

Retire an Agent ID instantly, with no successor: sign as the revocation_signature field specifies — who signs, and how. Fresh ID, same chain: agentid_renew. POST the tool inputs as JSON to paid_url with an x402 v2 PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. See https://docs.cdp.coinbase.com/x402 Paid tool — $0.25, USDC on Base or Arbitrum One. Paid URL: https://aemb.pro/v1/agent-id/revoke.

Tool call template

Replace each placeholder with a value matching the input schema. Only required parameters are included; add optional parameters as needed.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
reasonYesWhy the Agent ID is being retired (required, max 500 characters)
agent_idYesThe Agent ID string returned at issuance (64 hex characters; case-insensitive). Unknown IDs are rejected
idempotency_keyNoOptional idempotency key: 8-128 printable ASCII characters (no spaces), client-generated, one per logical request — a UUID v4 is recommended; published example keys are rejected. When provided, replaying the same key returns the original receipt instead of re-running the action; when omitted, no dedupe occurs. Keys are scoped per tool and per payer account: the same key on another tool — or from another wallet — is unrelated.
revocation_signatureYesHex signature over the exact UTF-8 message agent-id-revoke:<agent_id> (64-char lowercase ID, no trailing newline). EIP-191: personal_sign the message STRING (personal_sign envelope REQUIRED — raw ECDSA will not verify), 0x 65-byte hex r||s||v (v=27/28). ed25519: nacl.sign.detached over the message bytes, 64-byte hex. Signer: the principal's on-file revocation key, or the Embassy signer for cause

TDQS

A4.1/5.0
Behavior4/5

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 known; the description adds meaningfully beyond that with the cost and payment rail ($0.25 USDC on Base or Arbitrum One), the x402 v2 payment-signature requirement, and the finality implied by 'no successor.' It stops short of stating outright whether revocation is reversible or what happens to previously issued attestations, which is the one behavioral gap left for a destructive operation.

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?

Purpose is front-loaded in the first clause, and the sibling contrast follows immediately — good ordering. The payment sentences are dense but each carries non-obvious operational detail; the only friction is the somewhat awkward 'POST to paid_url' instruction, since paid_url is not actually a schema parameter and slightly blurs the invocation model.

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?

With an output schema present, return values need not be explained, and the description fills the remaining gaps the structured fields cannot: price, payment protocol, endpoint URL, and the no-successor semantics. Completeness is only marginally short of 5 because finality/reversibility of retirement is never stated explicitly for what annotations mark as a destructive call.

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 coverage is 100%, including a detailed revocation_signature spec and idempotency_key semantics, so the schema does the heavy lifting and a 3 baseline applies. The description's 'sign as the revocation_signature field specifies — who signs, and how' merely redirects to the schema rather than adding new meaning, and it does not surface the required reason or agent_id constraints in prose.

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?

The description leads with a specific verb and resource — 'Retire an Agent ID instantly, with no successor' — which is more precise than the title's 'Revoke'. It actively distinguishes itself from the nearest sibling by noting that agentid_renew provides a 'fresh ID, same chain,' so an agent can choose between permanent retirement and rotation without opening either schema.

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?

It names the alternative (agentid_renew) and the condition that selects it — no successor versus replacement. It also spells out the invocation prerequisite (POST JSON to paid_url with an x402 v2 PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header), but there is no explicit statement of when not to revoke, e.g. prerequisites such as holding the on-file revocation key are only implied via the signature parameter.

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