delete_households_cookbooks_by_item

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It fails to disclose any behavioral traits such as authentication requirements, irreversibility, side effects (e.g., cascading deletes), or rate limits. 'Delete One' offers no behavioral insight beyond the action name.

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?

While the description is extremely short, it is not concise in a useful way. It is under-specified, wasting the opportunity to provide essential details. Every word should add value, and 'Delete One' adds none beyond the 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?

Given the complexity of the sibling list (many delete-by-item tools), the description is wholly inadequate. It does not clarify what 'item' refers to (e.g., cookbook ID, household ID) or how this tool differs from closely related ones. The presence of an output schema does not compensate for the missing context.

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 2 parameters with 0% description coverage. The description adds no meaning to the parameters, failing to explain the role of 'item_id' or 'accept-language'. The schema itself lacks descriptions, so the description should compensate but does not.

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 'Delete One' is a tautology that merely restates the tool's name without specifying what exactly is deleted (e.g., a cookbook or an item within a cookbook). It lacks precision and does not differentiate from siblings like 'delete_households_shopping_items_by_item'.

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 (e.g., 'update_households_cookbooks' or other delete-by-item tools). The description gives no context about prerequisites, typical scenarios, or exclusions.

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