C2.9/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true, idempotentHint=true, readOnlyHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is fully covered. The description adds nothing beyond that — it just restates 'delete ... with a given id' and the REST path, saying nothing about what happens to dependent entities or whether deletion fails while the profile is in use.

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

Conciseness3/5

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

It is short and front-loads the operation, but the first two lines are near-verbatim duplicates ('Delete GCP storage profile' / 'Delete GCP storage profile with a given id'), so one sentence is wasted. The REST endpoint line is the only additional content.

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, idempotent delete with complete schema coverage and full annotations, the definition is minimally sufficient to invoke correctly. It omits consequences of deletion (cascading effects, behavior when the profile is attached to machines), which is the remaining gap.

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% with both parameters documented ('The ID of the storage profile. (path)' and the apiVersion format). The description's phrase 'with a given id' adds no meaning beyond the schema, so the baseline 3 applies.

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 GCP storage profile') and scopes it to a given id, which is enough to separate it from the AWS/Azure/vSphere delete siblings. It does not explicitly contrast itself with the generic iaas_delete_storage_profile, but the cloud qualifier carries the differentiation.

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?

There is no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of alternatives such as iaas_delete_storage_profile (generic) or the get/update GCP storage profile siblings. The agent must infer that the GCP-specific delete is the right pick.

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