Delete Circuit_termination

netbox_delete_circuit_termination
Destructive

Permanently delete a circuit termination from NetBox by providing its numeric ID. Cascading deletion removes dependent objects.

Instructions

Delete a circuit_termination from NetBox by numeric id.

DESTRUCTIVE and IRREVERSIBLE. NetBox CASCADES deletes: removing an object also removes everything that depends on it (deleting a device removes its interfaces, power ports, and assigned IPs; deleting a site can remove its racks, devices, and prefixes; deleting a manufacturer removes its device types; and so on). There is no undo. Confirm the exact object — and what will cascade with it — with the user before calling.

Returns a confirmation on success (NetBox replies HTTP 204 No Content).

Behavior5/5

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

Beyond the annotations' destructiveHint: true, the description elaborates on cascading deletes with concrete examples (e.g., deleting a device removes interfaces), states there is no undo, and describes the return behavior (HTTP 204). No contradiction with annotations.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

The description is well-structured: first sentence states the action, followed by a concise warning paragraph and then the return information. It is front-loaded and each sentence adds value, though some redundancy in the warning examples could be trimmed.

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?

Given the tool's simplicity (single parameter, no output schema, clear annotations), the description fully covers the purpose, behavior, usage precautions, and expected result. Nothing important 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?

The only parameter (id) has 100% schema coverage. The description merely restates it as 'numeric id', adding no extra semantics beyond the schema's description.

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 the action ('Delete a circuit_termination') and the resource (NetBox by numeric id). It clearly distinguishes itself from sibling tools like netbox_create_circuit_termination and netbox_update_circuit_termination.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

The description warns that the operation is destructive and irreversible, advises confirming the exact object and cascade effects with the user before calling, and notes the HTTP 204 success response. This provides clear when-to-use guidance.

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