android_to_ios_app_mapping_details__delete

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

The description confirms the destructive action and specifies which resource is deleted, adding context beyond the annotations that simply mark it destructive/idempotent. However, it does not disclose other behavioral details such as reversibility or side effects, though the annotations already cover the core safety profile.

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, efficient sentence that states the action and includes the endpoint. There is zero waste, and the essential information is 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 tool with one parameter and strong annotations (destructive, idempotent), the description and schema together are sufficient. It does not explain what happens on success or mention irreversibility, but these are reasonably inferred and not critical gaps for this operation.

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 description coverage is 100%, with the id parameter described as 'ID from the matching list call.' The description repeats the endpoint placeholder but adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline of 3 is appropriate.

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 clearly states the action ('Delete') and the specific resource ('an android to iOS app mapping detail'), with the HTTP endpoint providing additional specificity. It unambiguously distinguishes from sibling create/get/update tools for the same resource.

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 verb 'Delete' and resource name clearly indicate when to use this tool. While it doesn't explicitly name alternatives, the delete action is self-explanatory, and the schema's id description implies a prerequisite (retrieve ID from list call). No exclusions or alternatives are mentioned, but the context is clear.

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