C2.9/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is largely covered. The phrase "move to trash" does add real value by implying a recoverable soft delete rather than a permanent purge, but the description says nothing about permissions required, whether child pages are affected, or how the page can be restored.

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?

A single five-word sentence with no filler and the action front-loaded. It is efficient, though the brevity shades into under-specification rather than tight, informative concision.

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

Completeness2/5

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

For a destructive, non-idempotent mutation with no output schema and 0% schema coverage, the description leaves out too much: permissions, effect on child pages, and recoverability/restore path. The annotations carry the risk signal, but the description does not fill the remaining gaps an agent needs before invoking a delete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 0% and the description does not explain pageId at all, so the description fails to compensate for the coverage gap. The single parameter name is largely self-evident, which keeps this from being a 1, but no format or sourcing guidance is added.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

"Move a page to trash" states a specific verb (move to trash) and resource (page), which reads as a soft delete and is distinguishable from conf_update_page or conf_get_page. It stops short of naming any sibling or clarifying the boundary with conf_update_page, so it is clear but not fully differentiated.

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

Usage Guidelines2/5

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

There is no guidance on when to use this versus conf_update_page, and no mention of prerequisites such as ownership or admin rights. It also doesn't say whether this is the only deletion path or whether a permanent-delete variant exists.

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