Delete Virtual_circuit_termination

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

It explains that the operation is destructive, irreversible, and triggers cascading deletes with examples, and notes the HTTP 204 response. This adds detail beyond the annotations that already mark it as destructive.

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 concise and front-loaded with the main action, followed by warnings and response details. Every sentence adds value, though the cascading examples could be slightly more compressed.

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?

Given the simplicity of the tool (single parameter, no output schema), the description covers the essential aspects: purpose, destructive nature, cascading behavior, need for user confirmation, and response. It lacks mention of error responses but is still adequate.

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 schema has 100% coverage and already describes the 'id' parameter as a numeric id. The description adds no additional semantic meaning beyond 'by numeric id'.

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 verb 'Delete' and resource 'virtual_circuit_termination' are clearly stated, and it specifies deletion by numeric id. However, it does not differentiate this tool from other delete tools in the sibling list.

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 advises confirming the object and cascading effects with the user before calling, which provides usage guidance. But it does not explicitly state when not to use or mention alternative tools.

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