forgetDelete a previously stored memory by key. Use when context is stale, the task is done, or you want to clear sensitive data the agent saved earlier. Pair with remember and recall.

+]Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare destructiveHint=true and idempotentHint=true, so the core behavioral profile is covered. The description adds minimal extra behavior beyond the obvious deletion action, such as specifics about idempotency or error handling. It does provide context about clearing sensitive data, but this is more of a motivational use case than a behavioral disclosure.
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 three short sentences, front-loaded with the action, followed by specific usage guidance and sibling references. Every sentence earns its place with no redundancy or fluff.
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 tool with comprehensive annotations and a clear schema, the description covers purpose, usage conditions, and related tools. No output schema is present, so return values need not be explained. The tool is fully contextualized within the memory workflow.
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 coverage is 100% for the single parameter 'key', which includes a description 'Memory key to delete' and an example. The tool description repeats that the deletion is 'by key' but does not add additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides.
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 a previously stored memory by key.' This clearly distinguishes it from sibling tools like recall (retrieve) and remember (store), with no ambiguity.
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?
It explicitly provides when to use: 'when context is stale, the task is done, or you want to clear sensitive data the agent saved earlier.' It also mentions pairing with remember and recall, effectively identifying alternative tools for related operations.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Add one secure layer between your agents and this server.
Many tools have heavily overlapping purposes: ask_pipeworx, ask_pipeworx_beta, ask_pipeworx_grounded, deep_research, discover_tools, and suggest_questions all route to the same underlying data catalog. The six polymarket_* tools also blur together (edges, arbitrage, edge_tracker, fill_risk, kalshi_spread), and resolve vs resolve_entity is an outright collision an agent will likely misselect.
There is a solid verb_noun core (list_subscriptions, scan_dependency, validate_claim, suggest_questions, compare_entities) but it is mixed with bare nouns (enrichment, homology, interactions, network) and product-prefixed names (pipeworx_feedback, polymarket_edges, ask_pipeworx). No single consistent pattern holds across the set, though the clusters are internally predictable.
At 36 tools this is well above the 25+ threshold for 'too many,' and the sprawl is not justified by a single coherent domain—prediction markets, bioinformatics, brand visibility, npm scanning, and subscription management are jammed together. The count makes the tool surface hard to navigate even with good descriptions.
Within each major cluster the lifecycle feels covered: memory (remember/recall/forget), subscriptions (subscribe/unsubscribe/list/recent_alerts), STRING-DB (resolve/homology/interactions/network/enrichment), and Polymarket analysis (scan/edge/arb/fill-risk/track) all form reasonably complete workflows. The main gap is that the server attempts so many domains that none is exhaustively deep, but there are no critical dead ends.
