Remove a product

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

Annotations only supply readOnlyHint=false, so the description carries most of the burden. It does add useful scoping context (the target is a previously saved product, i.e., user state rather than arbitrary catalog items), but it says nothing about whether removal is permanent or reversible, or what happens if the product isn't found. No contradiction with the annotation.

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?

A single short sentence with no padding. The verb and the object scoping are both front-loaded in the first four words.

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 zero-parameter tool with no output schema and only a readOnlyHint annotation, the description covers the essential purpose adequately. It is slightly thin on what the removal affects and how errors are surfaced, but nothing critical is missing for correct invocation.

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?

Zero parameters are declared, so per the baseline the schema cannot be a source of ambiguity. The description adds the only semantic cue available (the product must have been saved earlier), though it doesn't explain how the product is identified given an empty parameter object.

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?

States a specific verb (remove) and resource (a product you saved earlier), which the agent can contrast with add_product and list_my_products. It does not name any sibling explicitly, so it stops short of full differentiation.

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 phrase 'you saved earlier' implies a precondition (the product must already be in the user's saved set) and implies the inverse of add_product, but there is no explicit when-to-use, when-not-to-use, or named alternative.

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