delete_registry

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

The description indicates the tool is destructive and requires confirmation, which is important behavioral context. But with no annotations, it could provide more details about side effects or state changes beyond the confirmation requirement.

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 two sentences long, front-loading the purpose and adding a key requirement. No unnecessary words.

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 is destructive with 3 parameters and no output schema, the description is incomplete. It fails to explain parameters, return values, preconditions (e.g., empty registry), or behavior, leaving significant gaps for an agent.

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?

The schema has 0% description coverage, and the description does not explain any of the three parameters (env_id, agent_token, registry_id). Additionally, it mentions 'confirmation_token' which is not present in the input schema, causing confusion.

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 uses a specific verb ('Delete') and resource ('container registry'), making the tool's purpose clear. It distinguishes itself from siblings like create_registry, update_registry, and test_registry.

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?

The description states that confirmation via confirmation_token is required, providing a clear prerequisite. However, it does not explicitly state when to use this tool over alternatives, though the context is implicitly clear.

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