edubase_delete_video_permission

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

Annotations already provide destructiveHint=true and readOnlyHint=false, which the description aligns with ('Remove'). However, the description adds no additional behavioral details beyond the annotations. For example, it does not explain idempotency (annotated idempotentHint=true) or what happens when the permission does not exist. The description carries minimal extra value.

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?

The description is a single sentence of six words, making it very concise and front-loaded. It wastes no words but could be slightly more informative without sacrificing conciseness. The structure is adequate for a simple delete operation.

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?

Given the tool has three required parameters, an output schema, and annotations (including openWorldHint and idempotentHint), the description is too minimal. It does not clarify the behavior when the permission is missing, the format of the response, or any side effects. The output schema is present but not referenced, leaving the agent without full context for correct invocation. More information about idempotency and expected outcomes would improve completeness.

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 100%, and the schema already provides descriptions for all three parameters (user, video, permission). The tool description does not add any additional meaning or context for these parameters, so it meets the baseline of 3. No extra clarity is provided beyond the schema.

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?

The description 'Remove a user permission from a video' clearly states the action (remove) and the resource (user permission on a video). It readily distinguishes from sibling delete tools (e.g., delete_exam, delete_user) by specifying the resource type. However, it does not explicitly differentiate from the sibling 'edubase_delete_video_permission' itself, but the name makes the resource clear.

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives like edubase_post_video_permission (add) or edubase_get_video_permission (view). There is no mention of prerequisites, required permissions, or scenarios where deletion is appropriate. The description is purely functional, lacking any context about when to invoke it.

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