WHAT IT DOES

What proxmox_delete_pool does on MCP Proxmox Server

AI agents call proxmox_delete_pool to permanently remove resources in MCP Proxmox Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why proxmox_delete_pool is rated Critical

The 'delete' operation cannot be undone and removes infrastructure configuration from a virtualization management system. Even though the description is empty, the tool name unambiguously indicates a destructive action.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'proxmox_delete_pool' — the verb 'delete' directly indicates irreversible removal. In Proxmox, a pool is a logical grouping of resources (VMs, storage, etc.); deletion destroys this configuration and potentially impacts all associated resources.
