Why delete_note is rated Critical
This tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on user data (notes). Deletion cannot be undone and represents permanent data loss. While the blast radius is limited to individual notes rather than system-wide data, the destructive nature and potential for accidental or malicious data loss in a Nextcloud collaboration environment justifies 'high' severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_note' combined with description 'Delete a note by its ID' explicitly indicates irreversible deletion of data.
