Behavior3/5

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

The annotations include destructiveHint=true, so the agent knows it's destructive. The description adds no further behavioral context (e.g., no mention of success state, error handling, or undo capability), but annotations already convey the key trait.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

The description is a single, front-loaded sentence with no wasted words. It conveys the essential purpose efficiently.

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

Completeness4/5

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

For a simple delete operation with one required parameter and a destructive annotation, the description is mostly adequate. However, it lacks mention of error conditions or return behavior (no output schema), and does not explicitly state irreversibility beyond the annotation.

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 coverage is 100%, so the schema fully defines parameters. The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema provides, such as clarifying the auto-resolution of pageId or the format of visualId.

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

Purpose5/5

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

The description 'Delete a visual from a page' clearly states the action (delete) and the resource (visual from a page), distinguishing it from siblings like pbir_bulk_delete_visuals (bulk delete) and pbir_delete_bookmark (delete bookmark).

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., pbir_bulk_delete_visuals for multiple visuals), no prerequisites, and no mention of irreversibility beyond the annotation.

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