delete_upload_clean

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

States destructive action and lists error codes, but no annotations are provided so description carries full burden. Lacks details on irreversibility, permissions, or handling of in-progress files.

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?

Two sentences: first states action, second lists error codes. No wasted words, but error codes could be formatted more cleanly.

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 zero-parameter tool with output schema, description is adequate but does not explain return value or mention that it's a batch operation.

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?

No input parameters, so schema coverage is 100%. Description adds value by explaining the filtering condition (not in_progress) beyond the empty 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?

Clear verb 'Deletes' and specific resource 'all the FileUpload not in_progress'. Distinguishes from siblings like delete_upload_id and delete_upload_id_cancel by specifying batch deletion of non-in-progress uploads.

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 explicit when-to-use or when-not-to-use. Implies it's for batch cleanup of non-in-progress uploads, but lacks comparison with sibling delete tools.

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