Delete Console_server_port_template

netbox_delete_console_server_port_template
Destructive

Remove a console server port template by numeric ID in NetBox. This destructive action cascades to delete all dependent objects.

Instructions

Delete a console_server_port_template 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).

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault

Behavior5/5

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

The description strongly emphasizes the destructive and irreversible nature, explains cascading deletes with examples, and notes the HTTP 204 response. This goes well beyond the destructiveHint annotation.

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, front-loaded with the action, and uses brief but impactful warnings. Every sentence adds value without redundancy.

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 simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description fully covers what the tool does, its risks, and response. No gaps remain.

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 schema covers 100% of the parameter, so the description's mention of 'numeric id' adds minimal value. Baseline 3 is appropriate.

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 clearly states it deletes a console_server_port_template by numeric id. It is specific and distinct from sibling delete tools, which are for other object types.

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?

The description explicitly advises to confirm the exact object and cascading effects with the user before calling. However, it does not provide alternative tools or exclusions, which is acceptable given the clear purpose.

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