Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries the full burden for behavioral disclosure. It merely restates the delete action without mentioning irreversibility, effects on child nodes, permission requirements, or limits. For a destructive operation, this is insufficient transparency.
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 a single, short, front-loaded sentence with no filler. It efficiently communicates the action and scope without unnecessary words.
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?
The tool is simple with one parameter and no output schema, so the description needn't explain return values. However, it omits behavioral context such as error handling, effects on child nodes, or any limits. It is minimally complete but lacks ancillary detail that would make it fully informative.
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 100% for the single parameter nodeIds. The description adds no new semantic detail beyond the schema, and the 'multiple' qualifier is redundant with the array type. Baseline 3 applies because the schema fully documents the parameter.
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 clearly states the tool deletes multiple nodes from Figma at once. 'Multiple' distinguishes it from the sibling delete_node, and the verb 'delete' plus resource 'nodes from Figma' make the purpose unambiguous.
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?
No explicit when-to-use guidance or mention of alternatives. The 'multiple' qualifier implies it is for batch deletion, and the existence of sibling delete_node suggests a choice, but the description does not state when to prefer one over the other. Usage is implied rather than stated.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
