delete_campaign

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

Discloses irreversibility, authentication via API key, rate limits, read-only/dry-run respect, and return format. No annotations present, so description fully carries the burden.

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?

Well-structured with brief intro, usage guidelines, args/returns sections, and example. No wasted sentences; all information is relevant and front-loaded.

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 delete operation, the description covers authentication, constraints, irreversibility, error behavior, and return format. Complete given the tool's simplicity and lack of annotations.

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 0%, but description adds full meaning: campaign_id description with example and constraint 'Must not be a sent campaign'. No ambiguity remaining.

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?

Clearly states 'Permanently delete a campaign' and specifies it's for removing unwanted draft or scheduled campaigns. Differentiates from sibling delete tools by clarifying scope and conditions.

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?

Explicitly says when to use, when not (only unsent campaigns), and suggests alternative 'replicate_campaign' to preserve settings. Provides clear error condition for sent campaigns.

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