remove_ipv6_address

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

Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, so the destructive nature is known. The description adds context about the flexible address_id format (internal id or address value) and implies the operation is a removal, but it does not disclose additional behavioral traits such as configurability, dependencies, or what happens to the address if it is in use. This is acceptable given the simple operation and annotation coverage.

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 concise and well-structured. It starts with a clear one-sentence purpose statement, then provides a focused note on the address_id parameter. Every sentence carries useful information without unnecessary elaboration.

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?

Given the simple nature of a removal tool with a single required parameter, the description adequately covers the essentials: what it does and how to specify the target. The output schema exists, so return values are covered by structured data, and annotations address safety. It doesn't mention error scenarios or side effects, but for a straightforward destructive operation, this is reasonably complete.

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 description adds valuable meaning for the address_id parameter by explaining it can be either a RouterOS internal id (e.g., '*1') or an address value (e.g., '2001:db8::1/64'). However, it does not explain the optional device parameter, and with schema description coverage at 0%, it only partially compensates for the lack of property descriptions. The address_id clarification is helpful but the device parameter remains semantically undefined.

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: 'Removes an IPv6 address from the MikroTik device by ID or address value.' This specifies the verb, resource (IPv6 address), and scope (MikroTik device), and distinguishes it from the sibling tool remove_ip_address (which targets IPv4) by explicitly mentioning IPv6.

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 description provides clear context by stating it removes an IPv6 address and explains how to identify the target (by ID or address value). It does not explicitly mention when not to use this tool or provide alternatives, but the purpose is unambiguous enough that the usage scenario is clear without further guidance.

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