google_ads_keywords_remove

Remove a keyword from a Google Ads ad group by soft-deleting its criterion and returning the criterion_id. Record before-state first, because re-adding loses the keyword's quality score.

Instructions

Removes (soft-deletes) a single keyword criterion from an ad group. Returns the removed criterion_id. Destructive — not automatically reversible; record before-state with mureo_state_action_log_append if you may need to roll back (and note that re-adding the keyword creates a fresh criterion — the original quality score and learning are lost). For temporary suspension prefer google_ads_keywords_pause, which preserves all signals.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
reasonNoWhy this change is being made: one or two sentences naming the evidence and the expected effect. Stored in the journal and on the action_log entry this call produces, for the operator and the next session.
approvalNoExternal approval this change carries out (recorded and shown, never verified)
expectedNoExpected effects [{metric, direction, target?, horizon_days?, primary?}], exactly one primary:true when several; metric cpa/cpc/cpl/cpm/conversions/cvr/ctr/roas/cost/spend/clicks/impressions; direction up/down/hold.
ad_group_idYesParent ad group ID.
customer_idNoGoogle Ads customer ID as a 10-digit string without dashes (e.g. '1234567890'). Optional — falls back to GOOGLE_ADS_CUSTOMER_ID / GOOGLE_ADS_LOGIN_CUSTOMER_ID from the configured credentials when omitted.
decision_idNoA proposed decision this change carries out.
criterion_idYesKeyword criterion ID as returned by google_ads_keywords_list.

TDQS

A4.5/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

With no annotations, the description carries the full burden and does well: it discloses that this is a soft-delete, that it is destructive and not automatically reversible, that re-adding creates a fresh criterion losing quality score and learning, and that the return value is the removed criterion_id. It does not mention permission/auth requirements or any propagation delay to serving, which keeps it short of a 5.

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?

Three sentences, front-loaded with the action and return value, then consequences, then the alternative. No redundancy despite packing in destructiveness, rollback guidance, and quality-score loss.

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

Completeness5/5

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

For a destructive mutation with seven params and no annotations or output schema, the description covers what it does, what it returns, what is lost, how to recover, and which sibling to prefer. Nothing essential to a correct invocation is missing.

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 all seven parameters (including reason, approval, expected, decision_id, customer_id fallback) are already documented in the schema. The description adds no parameter-level semantics, which is the baseline 3 when the schema does the heavy lifting.

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?

Names a specific verb (Removes), resource (a single keyword criterion), and scope (from an ad group), plus the soft-delete nuance in parentheses. An agent can distinguish it from google_ads_negative_keywords_remove and google_ads_keywords_pause without opening any schema.

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

Usage Guidelines5/5

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

Explicitly routes the agent: use google_ads_keywords_pause for temporary suspension because it preserves all signals, and use mureo_state_action_log_append beforehand if rollback may be needed. Both a when-to-use and a when-to-use-something-else case are stated.

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