autotask_delete_quote_item

Destructive

Permanently delete a quote item (line item) from a quote. Provide the parent quote ID and the quote item ID to remove it. This action cannot be undone.

Instructions

⚠ DESTRUCTIVE — IRREVERSIBLE. Permanently deletes a quote item (line item) from a quote. This action cannot be undone. Confirm with the user before invoking.

Input Schema

quoteItemIdYesThe quote item ID to delete
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true, and the description adds warnings about irreversibility and the need for user confirmation, providing behavioral context beyond 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?

The description is concise, two sentences, with clear warnings front-loaded. No unnecessary words.

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 simple delete tool with two parameters and no output schema, the description fully covers the action, irreversibility, and required user confirmation.

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% with clear parameter descriptions. The tool description does not add additional semantic meaning beyond what the schema provides.

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?

The description explicitly states that this tool permanently deletes a quote item, distinguishing it from sibling tools like create_quote_item, update_quote_item, and search_quote_items.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description instructs to confirm with the user before invoking, which is good, but does not explicitly state when to use this tool versus alternatives like update_quote_item.

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