Instructions

Delete a theme from a WordPress site (must not be active)

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
siteYesSite ID (number) or domain name (e.g., "1" or "pavinglist.com")
slugYesTheme slug to delete (e.g., "flavor")
dry_runNoSimulate the operation without making changes (defaults to MAINWP_ENABLE_DRY_RUN_BY_DEFAULT)
Behavior2/5

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

No annotations provided, so description carries full burden. It only discloses the precondition, not the irreversibility, auth requirements, or error behavior of deletion. Minimal behavioral context.

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?

Single sentence that is direct and contains no fluff. Efficient, though could be slightly improved with a clearer delimiter.

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?

No output schema and no annotations. Description lacks information about return values, success/failure indicators, or error cases. Incomplete for a deletion tool without additional context.

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% with descriptions for all three parameters. The description does not add new meaning beyond the schema, so baseline 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?

Clearly states 'Delete a theme from a WordPress site' with a specific verb and resource, and includes a constraint. Distinguishes from siblings like mainwp_themes_activate and mainwp_themes_install.

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?

Explicitly states a precondition ('must not be active'), guiding the agent to only use this tool for inactive themes. Does not give alternatives or when-not-to-use, but the condition is clear.

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