DeleteDdl

Delete a DDL source from an SAP system via the ADT deletion API. Provide a transport request for transportable objects; omit it for local objects.

Instructions

C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations provided, the description carries the full burden of behavioral disclosure for a destructive operation, yet only hints at transport-request handling. It says nothing about permissions, irreversibility, cascade effects, or what a successful deletion returns.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two tight sentences with no wasted words, front-loading the core action. Slightly telegraphic, but appropriately sized for the tool's simplicity.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a destructive tool with no annotations and no output schema, the definition is thin. Parameters are fully covered by the schema, but the lack of behavioral context (irreversibility, prerequisites) leaves a gap an agent would want filled before invoking a delete.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so all three parameters are already documented in the schema. The description's note about transport_request being optional for local objects echoes the schema rather than adding new meaning, matching the baseline 3.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ('Delete a DDL source') and names the mechanism (ADT deletion API). This cleanly separates it from sibling tools like GetDdl, CreateDdl, UpdateDdl and ActivateDdl, though it doesn't explicitly call out those siblings.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description offers no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance relative to alternatives such as UpdateDdl or ActivateDdl. The only contextual note ('Transport request optional for local objects') concerns a parameter, not tool selection.

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