delete_circle

Destructive

Archive a Circle to hide it from default lists while keeping it recoverable by listing archived Circles.

Instructions

Archive a Circle (soft delete — sets status to archived). It stops appearing in the default list but is recoverable via list_circles with status="archived".

ACCESS: needs a Proof account. Set PROOF_API_KEY and restart this server, then call this tool again. start_login does NOT open this tool.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior5/5

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

Annotations only say destructiveHint=true, which would suggest irreversible data loss; the description corrects that impression by disclosing the operation is a recoverable archive and specifying the recovery path. It also discloses a real operational prerequisite (Proof account, PROOF_API_KEY, server restart) and explicitly rules out start_login as a workaround, which is exactly the kind of context an agent cannot get from annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two short blocks, each front-loaded with its most important fact: the soft-delete semantics first, then the access requirement. No redundant restatement of the title or schema.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a single-parameter mutation with an output schema and annotations, everything an agent needs is present: what the state change is, that it is recoverable, how to find archived items, and how to obtain credentials. Nothing material is missing.

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

Parameters3/5

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

Schema coverage is 100% and the single parameter already documents the 24-hex-char format and its meaning. The description adds no additional semantics about the id beyond what the schema states, so baseline 3 applies.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ("Archive a Circle") and immediately disambiguates the ambiguous name by clarifying it is a soft delete that sets status to archived, not a hard removal. This distinguishes it clearly from get_circle, update_circle, and list_circles.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Explains the observable effect (disappears from the default list) and names the exact recovery route (list_circles with status="archived"), which effectively tells an agent when the action is safe and how to undo it. It does not explicitly compare against update_circle for status changes, but the routing is clear in practice.

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