VPS_deleteFirewallV1

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

Discloses key side effect: 'Any virtual machine that has this firewall activated will automatically have it deactivated.' Given no annotations, this adequately informs the agent of the destructive nature and consequences.

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?

Three sentences, each adding value: purpose, side effect, usage advice. No redundant or extraneous text. Front-loaded with core action.

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?

Adequately covers the tool's behavior and usage context for a simple delete operation. Could mention irreversibility or requirement for correct firewallId, but sufficient for a straightforward tool.

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?

Input schema has 100% coverage with description 'Firewall ID'. Description adds no further meaning beyond the schema, so baseline score of 3 applies.

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?

Clearly states 'Delete a specified firewall' with a specific verb and resource. Unambiguous purpose, distinct from sibling tools like VPS_deactivateFirewallV1 which deactivates but does not delete.

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?

Explicitly advises 'Use this endpoint to remove unused firewall configurations.' Provides context by mentioning automatic deactivation of VMs, but does not explicitly state when not to use or list alternatives.

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