remove_local_cname_record

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

With no annotations, description fails to disclose what happens if host is missing, whether removal is idempotent, or any side effects. Only states basic action.

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?

Single sentence with no excess words, front-loaded action and object.

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 simple tool with one parameter and assumed output schema, description covers core purpose. Minor gap: no mention of checking existence via list_local_dns.

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?

Schema coverage is 0%, but description adds minimal meaning by tying 'host' to the host of the CNAME record. Adequate but not rich.

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?

Description states specific verb 'Remove', resource 'local CNAME record', and scope 'for the given host', clearly distinguishing it from siblings like remove_local_a_record and add_local_cname_record.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives, no mention of prerequisites (e.g., record must exist) or exclusions (e.g., cannot remove non-local records).

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