bookshelf_delete_delayprofile

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

The description restates the destructiveHint annotation without adding any new context. It does not disclose side effects like irreversibility, cascading deletes, or required permissions, so it adds little value beyond the annotations.

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 extremely concise and front-loaded, with no extra fluff. The 'DESTRUCTIVE' warning is redundant with the annotation but does not detract from the overall efficiency.

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 simple delete operation with one required parameter and an output schema, the description is minimally adequate. It identifies the target resource but lacks details about the deletion process, error handling, or consequences beyond the obvious.

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 description does not mention the 'id' parameter at all. With schema description coverage at 0%, the description fails to compensate for the schema's minimal documentation, leaving the agent with no additional semantic understanding of the parameter.

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 'Delete delayprofile' uses a specific verb and resource, clearly indicating the tool's purpose. It distinguishes itself from sibling tools like create_delayprofile, update_delayprofile, and list_delayprofile by the delete action.

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, such as update or get. It does not mention conditions, prerequisites, or when to avoid deletion beyond the generic destructive warning.

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