pfsense_delete_services_acme_certificates
AI agents call pfsense_delete_services_acme_certificates to permanently remove resources in Pfsense — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The 'delete' operation on certificates is categorized as Destructive rather than Write because certificate deletion is irreversible and has immediate operational impact (loss of HTTPS/TLS functionality). Critical severity is assigned because removing ACME certificates can disable encrypted communications on the firewall and dependent services, affecting security posture and availability.
