modx_migx_delete_config

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

With no annotations supplied, the description carries the full behavioral burden and discloses almost nothing: it does not say the deletion is permanent/irreversible, whether dependent MIGX items or grids tied to the config are affected, what permissions are required, or what happens if the id does not exist. Only the mutation direction is communicated, which the verb already implies.

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?

One short, front-loaded sentence with no filler or repetition. It is efficient, though the brevity is partly under-specification rather than disciplined compression.

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?

This is a destructive mutation with zero annotation coverage and no output schema, so the description is the only source of behavioral information — and it provides none of the safety-relevant context an agent needs before calling it. For a delete operation with no structured guards, substantially more disclosure is required.

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?

Schema description coverage is 0%, but the tool has a single self-evident numeric identifier named 'id', and the description confirms it is the identifier used to select the target. It adds no format, range, or sourcing guidance (where to obtain the id), which is the only real gap for a one-param tool.

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?

States a specific verb plus resource ('Delete a MIGX configuration') and the selector ('by id'), which cleanly separates it from siblings such as modx_migx_get_config, modx_migx_update_config, and modx_migx_list_configs. It stops short of 5 only because 'MIGX configuration' is never characterized, so an agent new to MIGX gets no sense of what object class it is removing.

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 when-to-use guidance, no mention of alternatives (e.g., update instead of delete to preserve the config), and no prerequisites or preconditions. The agent must infer entirely from the verb when this tool is appropriate.

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