thincms_delete_campaign

Delete a campaign from ThinCMS by specifying its ID. Optionally override the active site or acknowledge a production write.

Instructions

Delete a campaign.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
idYesCampaign ID
siteIdNoOverride the active site for this single call. Pass to target a specific tenant without mutating shared active-site state — the right pattern when running concurrent agent sessions managing different tenants. Must match a siteId from your THINCMS_SITES config (use thincms_list_sites to inspect). When omitted, the call uses the active site set by thincms_switch_site.
confirmProductionWriteNoAcknowledge that this call may write to a configured production site (THINCMS_PRODUCTION_SITE_IDS env var). Required for any POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE against a production-listed site; ignored otherwise. The error message lists which site triggered the requirement and recommends thincms_snapshot before any production write.
Behavior2/5

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

With no annotations, the description fully bears the burden of behavioral disclosure. 'Delete a campaign' implies an irreversible destructive action, but the description does not mention cascading effects, confirmation requirements (confirmProductionWrite from schema), or whether the action can be undone. This is insufficient for a deletion tool.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single sentence, concise but too minimal. It avoids verbosity but sacrifices completeness. Every word earns its place, but the description could be more informative without bloating (e.g., adding a sentence about confirmProductionWrite or irreversibility).

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

Completeness2/5

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

Given the tool's complexity (3 params, no output schema), the description is incomplete. It fails to mention that the action is destructive, that confirmProductionWrite may be required, or that it permanently removes a campaign. The schema covers parameter details, but the description leaves critical context unaddressed.

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 adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides for parameters like id, siteId, and confirmProductionWrite. No extra value, but no harm.

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 'Delete a campaign.' clearly states the action and resource. It is straightforward but does not differentiate from other delete tools in the sibling list, which all follow a similar pattern. A higher score would require explicit distinction, but the purpose is unambiguous.

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?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., unpublish, archive). There is no mention of prerequisites, required permissions, or scenarios where deletion is appropriate vs. other actions. The description provides no context for decision-making.

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