delete_settings_discover_by_slider_id

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

The annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, so the description adds no behavioral context beyond those. It does not mention whether deletion is permanent, what effects it has on related settings, or what response is expected; it simply restates the delete action.

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

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

The description is very short and front-loads the action and endpoint. The 'Args' line is somewhat redundant with the input schema, but the overall structure is clear and free of filler.

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

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

For a simple one-parameter delete operation with annotations and an output schema, the description is mostly adequate. However, it omits any statement about deletion consequences or when deletion is appropriate, which matters for a destructive operation.

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

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

The schema has 0% description coverage and only one required number parameter. The description does add that slider_id is a path parameter, which is useful for constructing the request, but it does not explain what the ID refers to or any constraints beyond the schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states a specific verb and resource: 'Delete slider by ID.' It is immediately distinguishable from sibling tools like update_settings_discover_by_slider_id and create_settings_discover_add by the delete operation and the endpoint.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no guidance on when to use this tool versus the update or create alternatives, nor any mention of prerequisites such as the slider needing to exist. The only usage signal is the tool name and the verb 'Delete,' which is implied rather than explicitly explained.

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