clear_pages

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden. It states the destructive action 'Remove ALL pages' but offers no additional behavioral details such as irreversibility, effect on the report session, or prerequisites. This is a significant transparency gap for a destructive operation.

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?

The description is a single, well-structured sentence with a useful parenthetical example. It is front-loaded with the action, and every word contributes meaning—no redundancy or fluff.

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?

For a simple tool with one parameter and no output schema, the description conveys the core purpose and a common scenario. However, it leaves important gaps: no parameter semantics, no mention of side effects or reversibility, and no reference to related tools. Adequate but not complete.

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?

The description does not mention the required 'reportSessionId' parameter, and the schema provides no descriptions (coverage 0%). With low schema coverage, the description must compensate, but it fails to explain the parameter or how to obtain/use the session ID.

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?

The description clearly states the action ('Remove ALL pages from the report') with a specific verb and resource, and the 'ALL' scope distinguishes it from more selective page removal. The example ('e.g. to replace a stale report with a fresh one') adds concrete context.

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?

The example use case suggests when to use the tool (replacing a stale report), which gives clear context. However, it does not explicitly mention alternative tools (e.g., delete_page for specific pages) or provide exclusion criteria, so it misses the top tier.

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