clickup_comment_delete

Permanently removes a ClickUp comment and its threaded replies from a task, list, or view. Use this only for irreversible deletion; to mark a comment as handled, update it with resolved=true instead.

Instructions

Permanently delete a ClickUp comment from a task, list, or view. Destructive and irreversible — the comment and any threaded replies are removed. Use clickup_comment_update with resolved=true instead if you only want to mark the comment as handled. Returns an empty object on success.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
comment_idYesID of the comment to delete. Obtain from clickup_comment_list (field: id). The authenticated user must have edit permission on the parent task/list/view.
Behavior4/5

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

States destructive and irreversible action including threaded replies, and return type. No annotations present so description carries burden.

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-loading purpose and usage guidance.

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?

Covers deletion scope, irreversibility, alternative, and return format. Complete for a simple delete tool without output schema.

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 100% with detailed param description; description adds no further semantic value beyond schema.

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?

Clearly states 'Permanently delete a ClickUp comment' with specific verb and resource. Distinguishes from sibling clickup_comment_update.

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 mentions when to use alternative (clickup_comment_update with resolved=true) and notes destructive nature.

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