cachly — AI Cognitive Brain

forget_context

Delete stale cached context entries to force a fresh analysis. Supports glob patterns to clear multiple entries at once.

Instructions

Delete one or more cached context entries. Use when context is stale or you want to force a fresh analysis. Supports glob patterns: "file:*" deletes all file summaries.

Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden. It discloses glob pattern support but does not mention whether deletion is permanent or if it affects underlying data. Adequate but lacking detail on consequences.

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?

Two sentences are used to convey purpose, usage guidance, and an example with glob patterns. Every sentence is valuable; no fluff.

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?

Given no output schema and only 2 required parameters, the description covers purpose, usage, and a key feature (glob). It could mention return values or error handling but is fairly complete for a simple delete tool.

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 coverage is 100% and already includes glob support in the 'keys' description. The description adds no new information beyond what the schema provides, so baseline score of 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 the tool deletes cached context entries with the verb 'delete' and resource 'cached context entries'. It distinguishes from siblings like 'cache_delete' by specifying context and glob patterns.

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 says 'Use when context is stale or you want to force a fresh analysis', giving clear context. It does not include explicit exclusions or alternatives, but the guidance is sufficient.

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