TDQS

B3.3/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

The annotations already carry destructiveHint=true, so the description does not need to restate danger. It adds that the target is project-panel items and that deletion happens in batch, but it does not disclose whether deletion is permanent, reversible, or cascading. This is acceptable given the annotation coverage but not rich.

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?

One short, direct sentence with no filler or redundancy. The action, object, scope, and batch nature are all conveyed efficiently.

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 simple one-parameter destructive operation with an output schema and strong annotations, the description is mostly sufficient. However, it omits usage guidance distinguishing it from delete_project_item and does not clarify permanence or side effects beyond what the destructiveHint annotation already conveys.

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 single parameter item_ids is already fully documented. The description adds no extra meaning about how IDs or names resolve to project items, so it neither improves nor detracts from the schema's explanation.

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?

The description clearly states the action ('Delete') and the resource ('multiple project items') with a specific scope ('from the project panel'). It is easy to tell this is the batch counterpart to single-item deletion, though it does not explicitly name or contrast sibling tools.

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 gives no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives such as delete_project_item, delete_sequence, or delete_bin. The 'multiple... at once' wording implies a batch use case, but no explicit selection criteria or exclusions are provided.

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