C2.8/5.0
Behavior2/5

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

Annotations already disclose that this is destructive and idempotent (readOnly=false, destructive=true). The description adds no behavioral context beyond the word 'Delete' and the HTTP route, such as permanence, cascading effects, authorization requirements, or error behavior.

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 short and front-loaded with the action, which is good. However, it contains redundancy: the Args list duplicates the schema and the endpoint repeats the operation, so not every line earns its place.

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?

This is a low-complexity, one-parameter delete operation with robust annotations and an output schema. The description gives enough for an agent to know what resource is being acted on and what parameter to supply, though it lacks caveats about consequences or permissions.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters2/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

With 0% schema description coverage, the description should add real meaning, but 'request_id: Request ID' only repeats the schema title. The endpoint's {requestId} at least implies the parameter is a path value, but there is no format, example, or additional semantic explanation.

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 clearly states the operation ('Delete request') and gives the exact DELETE route, so an agent can identify the resource and action. It does not explicitly contrast with sibling tools like update_request_by_request_id or get_request_by_request_id, so it stops short of the highest score.

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 gives no guidance about when to use this tool, when not to use it, or what alternatives exist. It only restates the endpoint and argument, leaving the agent to infer context from the tool name and sibling list.

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