RISK

Why delete_variable_group is rated Critical

Deleting a variable group removes configuration data that likely supports application deployments and CI/CD pipelines. This action cannot be undone and affects shared infrastructure/configuration used by development teams. While not as critical as deleting production data, it is irreversible and has team-wide blast radius, making it Destructive rather than Write.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_variable_group' with description 'Delete a variable group'. The word 'Delete' combined with the action of removing a variable group indicates irreversible data destruction.
