tm_delete_profile

Destructive

Delete a traffic profile by ID, canceling any in-flight runs while retaining run history.

Instructions

Delete a profile by id. Any in-flight run is cancelled server-side; run history rows are retained (only the profile definition is removed).

Returns {"profile_id": <id>, "deleted": True} on success. A 400 / "Profile not found" surfaces as a typed ToolError — caller can react to it without parsing message text.

Behavior4/5

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

Description adds significant behavioral context beyond annotations: cancels in-flight runs, retains history rows, returns specific JSON, and handles errors as typed ToolError. Annotations already indicate destructive, so additional context is valuable.

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

Conciseness5/5

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

Description is concise with three sentences, front-loaded with the primary action. Every sentence adds value with no fluff.

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?

Covers core deletion behavior, side effects, return format, and error handling. Missing possibly authorization requirements, but annotations cover destructiveness. Adequate for a simple delete tool.

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?

The single parameter profile_id is not described beyond the schema. Schema coverage is 0%, but the parameter is self-explanatory. Description adds minimal semantic value; baseline 3 is appropriate.

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?

Description clearly states it deletes a profile by ID, distinguishing from sibling tools like create/get/update. It also specifies behavior regarding in-flight runs and history retention, differentiating it further.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The description implies usage for deleting a profile but does not explicitly state when to use it versus alternatives or provide exclusions. Context of siblings makes it clear, but lacks explicit guidance.

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