A3.5/5.0
Behavior3/5

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

No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full behavioral burden. It usefully discloses that the action is "outward-facing or destructive" and requires confirm=true, but it does not explain irreversibility, permission requirements, side effects, or what happens when multiple matching tasks exist.

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?

The description is two short sentences with zero waste. The core action is front-loaded and the confirmation requirement follows immediately.

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

Completeness3/5

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

The schema fully documents the parameters, and the description adds the critical confirm requirement. But for a destructive tool with no annotations and no output schema, it is still missing important context about reversibility, matching behavior, and how it differs from related task tools.

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 description coverage is 100%, so all five parameters are already documented. The description mentions confirm=true, but this is already stated in the schema and does not add meaning beyond it.

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 states a specific verb and resource: "Delete a Google Task." It is clear what the tool does, but it does not differentiate from closely related siblings such as calendar_task_complete, calendar_task_update, or calendar_task_list_delete.

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 usage is implied by "Delete a Google Task" and the required confirm=true prerequisite. However, there is no explicit guidance on when to delete versus complete, update, or otherwise modify a task, and no alternatives are named.

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