Delete object

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, readOnlyHint=false and openWorldHint=true, and the '[DESTRUCTIVE]' tag merely restates that. The description adds nothing beyond annotations and schema: no note on overwrite/recoverability, permission requirements, or behavior when the key does not exist.

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?

Very compact and front-loaded: the destructive tag, the operation, and the key constraint come in one line with no filler. It is efficient, though its terseness is partly under-specification rather than pure conciseness.

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 simple two-parameter delete with annotations covering the safety profile, this is minimally viable. However, with 0% schema description coverage and no output schema, the agent gets no bucket naming rules, key path format, or post-deletion/error semantics from anywhere.

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 0%, so the description must carry parameter meaning. It names both parameters (bucket, key) and adds the semantic that matching must be exact (no prefix/pattern), but supplies no format, naming constraints, or examples for either required field.

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+resource (S3 DeleteObject on an object) and maps it to the SDK operation 'delete-object', which distinguishes it from sibling deletes like delete_bucket or delete_edge_route. It doesn't explicitly contrast with list_objects/put_object_text, but the resource scope is unambiguous.

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, no alternatives named (delete_bucket, put_object_text, head_object are all adjacent siblings). The only conditional information is the precondition 'requires exact bucket+key', which is a requirement, not usage routing.

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