delete_ecs_infrastructure
AI agents call delete_ecs_infrastructure to permanently remove resources in AWS DocumentDB MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The tool performs infrastructure deletion, which is irreversible and cannot be undone. Deleting ECS infrastructure (container services, task definitions, clusters) destroys cloud resources with significant blast radius. This falls under Destructive rather than Execute because the primary intent is permanent removal, not conditional execution.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_ecs_infrastructure' contains 'delete', indicating irreversible removal of infrastructure resources. Empty description prevents full certainty but the naming is explicit.
