Delete Dumpster Log

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true. The description reinforces irreversibility with statements like 'This cannot be undone,' adding some context beyond annotations. However, it does not disclose additional behavioral traits such as required permissions or side effects.

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 contains redundancy with 'This cannot be undone' stated twice. It is adequately structured but could be more concise by removing duplicate emphasis on irreversibility. Front-loading is acceptable.

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 deletion tool with two required parameters and no output schema, the description covers all critical aspects: purpose, irreversibility, required parameters, and API endpoint. Nothing necessary is omitted.

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 input schema has 100% coverage for both parameters. The description adds value by noting the Procore API path and explaining that parameters are URL path parameters, which provides context beyond the schema's description of 'unique identifier' and 'Daily Log resource'.

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 'Delete single Dumpster Log' and 'permanently delete the specified Daily Log records.' The verb 'delete' and resource 'Dumpster Log' are specific, and the tool is easily distinguishable from sibling delete tools by naming the resource.

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 says 'Use this to permanently delete' and lists required parameters. It provides basic usage context but does not offer guidance on when not to use this tool or mention alternatives. No exclusions or conditional scenarios are given.

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