Delete a navigation menu

delete_menu
Destructive

Delete a WordPress navigation menu and all its items. Requires confirmation to prevent accidental removal; theme locations fall back to defaults.

Instructions

Delete a navigation menu and all of its items. Any theme location it filled falls back to the theme's default output. Requires confirm: true.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesThe menu ID to delete.
confirmNoRequired — menus and their items cannot be recovered.
site_idNoWhich configured WordPress site to act on. Optional — with a single site configured it is used automatically; with several, the default site is used unless you name one. Run list_sites for valid ids.

TDQS

A4/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already signal destructiveHint, but the description adds behavior beyond them: it cascades to all menu items and explains the theme-location fallback. This gives the agent a concrete picture of side effects that annotations alone do not provide.

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?

Three short sentences, each carrying distinct value: what is deleted, what side effect occurs, and what confirmation is required. No filler, and the core operation is front-loaded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a destructive tool with 3 parameters and no output schema, the description covers the key operational facts: cascade deletion, theme fallback, and confirm requirement. It does not explain return behavior, but that is a minor gap for such a straightforward operation.

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?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so the schema already documents id, confirm, and site_id. The description restates the confirm requirement but adds no new semantic meaning beyond the schema, keeping this at the baseline for fully covered parameters.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Delete a navigation menu') and clarifies the cascade ('and all of its items'), distinguishing it from sibling delete_menu_item. The resource is unambiguous and the sentence is action-focused.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description conveys the key usage requirement ('Requires confirm: true') and implies it is for whole-menu deletion, but it never explicitly says when to prefer this over alternatives like update_menu or delete_menu_item. No exclusions or alternative-routing guidance is provided.

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