delete_a_team

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

No annotations are provided, so the description bears full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It simply states 'Delete a team' without mentioning side effects (e.g., cascade deletion of members), authentication requirements, or rate limits. The agent is left guessing the implications.

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 short (3 words) and front-loaded, but it is too terse for a delete operation that may have significant impact. It earns no extra sentences, but the lack of detail makes it feel under-specified rather than appropriately concise.

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 absence of an output schema and annotations, the description should provide more completeness. For a delete tool, important context like irreversibility, dependencies (e.g., team must exist), or confirmation steps is missing. The description is insufficient for safe usage.

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 no parameters, so schema description coverage is 100%. Per the guidelines, 0 parameters yields a baseline of 4. The description adds no parameter details, but none are needed; the tool's action is self-contained.

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 a team' clearly states the verb (delete) and resource (team), making the tool's purpose obvious. However, it does not differentiate from sibling tools like delete_agent_in_team, which deletes a team member, not the team itself.

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., delete_agent_in_team). There is no mention of prerequisites, such as the team needing to exist or be empty before deletion. The description lacks any usage context.

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