roku_debug_breakpoints_remove

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries full responsibility for behavioral disclosure. It clearly states the destructive action (remove breakpoints), but it does not mention any requirements, side effects, or edge cases such as whether the debugger must be connected or what happens when an invalid ID is provided. This is similar to other mutation tools that lack annotation context.

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, front-loaded sentence that states the action and the key parameter constraint without any filler words. Every word earns its place.

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 tool with one parameter and an output schema, the description is minimally adequate. It identifies what to pass and the operation to perform, but it omits usage context such as how to obtain the remote IDs, whether the action is reversible, or whether a debugging session must be active. The low complexity keeps this at a mid-range score rather than lower.

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 zero description coverage for the only parameter 'breakpoint_ids,' which is typed only as an array with no item type. The description adds meaning by indicating that the array contains 'remote IDs' for breakpoints, which is helpful. However, it still does not specify the ID format or provenance, leaving some ambiguity.

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 uses a specific verb 'Remove' with a clear resource 'breakpoints' and a qualifier 'by their remote IDs.' This distinguishes it from the sibling tools that add, list, or remove all breakpoints, so an agent can select it correctly.

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 phrase 'by their remote IDs' implies that the agent should use this tool when it has specific breakpoint IDs to remove, and that the list tool would be needed to obtain them. However, it does not explicitly mention alternatives or state when not to use this tool, leaving usage guidance implied rather than explicit.

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