remove_recipe_ingredients_from_list

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

No annotations provided. Description only shows the endpoint; no mention of side effects, destructive nature, authorization, or whether removal is immediate or reversible.

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?

Extremely short but under-specified. The title repeats the name, and the endpoint adds little value. No structured information beyond one line.

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 tool with 3 parameters, no annotations, and no output schema, the description is grossly incomplete. It fails to explain the tool's effect, parameters, or return value.

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%, but description provides zero explanation of parameters. item_id, recipe_id, and the body with recipeDecrementQuantity are not described, leaving agent unable to determine required inputs.

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?

Title and description state the action 'Remove Recipe Ingredients From List' and the HTTP endpoint, but lack specificity on whether it removes all ingredients or a specific quantity. Does not distinguish from sibling tools like add_single_recipe_ingredients_to_list.

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 guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives. Sibling tools exist for adding ingredients, but no context on when removal is appropriate or prerequisites.

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