panelica_databases_delete_v1_databases_id

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

Description only says 'deletes' with no details on behavioral traits like irreversible data loss, dependency checks, or authorization requirements. Since annotations are absent, the description does not compensate for missing behavioral context.

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?

Very short (two sentences), but includes HTTP method and category which are arguably redundant. However, it is concise; no unnecessary words. Could be more informative without losing conciseness.

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 simplicity of the tool (one parameter, no output schema, no annotations), the description is minimal. It fails to mention return value, error handling, or prerequisites. For a delete operation, more context about consequences is needed.

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 single parameter 'id' has minimal schema description ('Path parameter: id'). The tool description adds no additional meaning about what the id represents (e.g., database name or ID) or its format. Baseline of 3 for 100% coverage is not met due to lack of added value.

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 clearly states 'Deletes a MySQL database.' with a specific verb and resource. It distinguishes itself from sibling database tools like get, grant, and revoke, and includes HTTP method and category for clarity.

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. Does not mention prerequisites, side effects, or context in which deletion is appropriate. The user is left without decision support.

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