mcp_opendaw_remove_modular_module

Remove a specific module from a Modular device in openDAW, automatically deleting all connections to and from it.

Instructions

Remove a module from a Modular device.

au_index: Audio unit index. effect_index: Effect index within the AU. module_index: Module index to remove.

Returns success or error. All connections to/from this module are also removed.

Behavior3/5

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

Mentions side effect: 'All connections to/from this module are also removed.' No annotations provided, so description carries burden. Doesn't detail error cases, undoability, or impact on other modules.

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?

Concise at 6 lines, front-loading purpose then parameters, return, side effect. Could be more structured (e.g., separate paragraphs), but no fluff.

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?

Covers purpose, parameters, and a key side effect. Output schema exists (not shown) but description mentions return. Lacks details on failure modes and preconditions, but adequate for a simple removal.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 0%, and description provides brief explanations for all three parameters (au_index, effect_index, module_index), adding meaning beyond bare names and types.

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?

Clearly states 'Remove a module from a Modular device.' Uses specific verb (remove) and resource (module from Modular device), distinguishing it from sibling tools like add_modular_module and list_modular_modules.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Does not explicitly state when to use or when not to use this tool. Implies usage when removal is desired but lacks alternatives or prerequisites like device existence.

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