WHAT IT DOES

What Delete_User does on Files Com

AI agents call Delete_User to permanently remove resources in Files Com, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why Delete_User is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes a user from the Files.com environment. User deletion is a destructive operation that eliminates access, data associations, and user records. While not directly financial, the blast radius is high as it could disable critical user accounts, disrupt workflows, or be weaponized by a compromised agent to remove administrative users.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'Delete_User' with description 'Delete User'. The action of deleting a user account is irreversible and cannot be undone without manual intervention or backups.
