delete_asset_profile

Destructive

Deletes an asset profile by data source and symbol. Removes associated activities and market data per backend rules.

Instructions

Delete an asset profile.

Removes the profile-data record for the given data source and symbol. Be careful, this might delete associated activities and market data depending on backend rules!

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
symbolYesSymbol/ticker of the asset to delete
data_sourceYesData source for the symbol. Typically 'MANUAL' — Ghostfolio rejects profile-data deletes for auto-fetched sources

Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already indicate destructiveness (destructiveHint=true). The description adds valuable context beyond annotations by warning that deleting a profile may also remove associated activities and market data, which is critical for agent decision-making.

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 concise sentences: front-loaded purpose, then clarification and caution. No wasted words; every sentence adds value.

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?

Given the presence of an output schema, the description covers the essential behavior (delete, caution about cascading effects). It lacks prerequisites or error conditions, but for a deletion tool with clear schema and annotations, this is adequate.

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 baseline is 3. The description does not add any extra meaning or usage details beyond the schema descriptions for 'symbol' and 'data_source'.

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 clearly states it 'Delete an asset profile' and specifies that it removes the profile-data record for the given data source and symbol. This distinguishes it from sibling tools like upsert_asset_profile (create/update) and get_asset_profile (read).

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?

The description implies usage for deleting an asset profile but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives or provide exclusions. The caution about associated data is behavioral, not a usage guideline for tool selection.

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