zabbix_trigger_delete

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

The description does not disclose any behavioral traits beyond the name. Since annotations are missing, the description carries full burden, but it fails to mention destructive nature, required permissions, side effects, or any operational constraints.

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 extremely concise (one sentence) but at the expense of all essential information. It is not structured to aid understanding; it provides only the bare method name.

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 delete operation, the description is critically incomplete. It does not specify what triggers are, how to identify them, what the output is, or any error conditions. Despite an output schema existing, the description does not leverage it.

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 input schema has a single parameter 'params' with 0% description coverage and no detail in the schema. The tool description adds zero information about what this parameter should contain (e.g., trigger IDs to delete). The agent has no way to know how to properly invoke the tool.

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 'Zabbix API trigger.delete method' is essentially a tautology, restating the tool's name. It only implies deletion of triggers but does not provide a clear, actionable verb-resource formulation or differentiate it from many sibling delete tools (e.g., zabbix_action_delete).

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 is provided on when to use this tool versus alternatives. There is no context about prerequisites, when not to use it, or how it fits among the large set of sibling tools.

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