thincms_delete_quiz_question

Delete a specific question from a quiz by providing its quiz ID and question ID. Essential for removing incorrect or outdated quiz questions.

Instructions

Delete a question from a quiz.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
quizIdYesQuiz ID (required)
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.
questionIdYesQuestion ID (required)
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?

No annotations are provided, so the description must carry the burden of behavioral disclosure. However, it only states 'delete' without clarifying destructive implications, required permissions, side effects (e.g., affecting quiz results), or the presence of the confirmProductionWrite parameter. The description fails to add critical behavioral context beyond the obvious.

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, making it concise. However, it is too brief to convey necessary context; it sacrifices informativeness for brevity. An ideal description would be slightly longer but still focused.

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 4 parameters (including cross-cutting siteId and confirmProductionWrite) and no output schema or annotations, the description is incomplete. It omits important details such as the effect of the siteId override, the requirement for confirmProductionWrite in production, and what happens upon success or error. The agent lacks sufficient context to use the tool correctly.

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%, with all 4 parameters documented. The description adds no additional meaning beyond the schema, so it meets the baseline. However, it does not explain relationships (e.g., the interplay of quizId and questionId) or any usage patterns, keeping it at a 3.

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 'Delete a question from a quiz' uses a specific verb and resource, clearly distinguishing it from sibling tools like thincms_delete_quiz (deleting an entire quiz) or thincms_delete_lesson (deleting a lesson). It leaves no ambiguity about the tool's function.

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 provides no guidance on when to use this tool vs alternatives, nor does it mention prerequisites or exclusions. The agent is left without context on proper usage, which is a significant gap for a delete operation in a content management system.

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