Delete Animation Track

delete_track
Destructive

Delete an animation track from a Cinema 4D object using its parameter ID and optional vector component. Returns a boolean to confirm removal.

Instructions

Remove an entire CTrack (identified by param_id + optional component) from the target. Returns {removed: bool}.

  2. First observedv0.3.1

TDQS

A3.8/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The destructiveHint annotation already flags mutation, so the description's job is lighter. It adds some value by disclosing the return shape ({removed: bool}) and clarifying that removal is keyed by param_id + component, but it does not state whether deletion is irreversible or that all keyframes on the track are destroyed as a consequence.

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?

Two short sentences with zero waste: the first leads with the action and identification strategy, the second gives the return value. Every word earns its place.

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 3-param destructive tool with 100% schema coverage and a destructiveHint annotation, the description is nearly complete: it states the target, the identifying parameters, and the return value (compensating for the missing output schema). It falls slightly short on the semantics of a false result (track not found?) and on routing to sibling tools.

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 the baseline is 3. The description reinforces the combinational semantics of param_id + component for identifying the track, which slightly augments the schema, but it adds no genuinely new parameter meaning beyond what the schema properties already document.

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 uses a specific verb ('Remove') and a specific resource ('an entire CTrack'), and names the exact identification key (param_id + optional component). 'Entire' sets it apart from the sibling delete_keyframe, which removes individual keyframes, so an agent can tell them apart without opening the schema.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

Usage context is implied rather than stated: 'entire CTrack' hints that this is for whole tracks, not individual keyframes, but the description never explicitly names delete_keyframe as the alternative for partial removal. No guidance is given on how to discover param_id (e.g., via list_tracks).

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