## Why claudeus_wp_media__delete is rated Critical

The tool performs an irreversible deletion operation on media files. Unlike Write operations (which are reversible), Destructive operations cannot be undone.

An AI agent misusing this tool could delete critical images, documents, or other assets that site owners depend on.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name explicitly states 'delete' and description confirms 'Delete a media item' — this irreversibly removes media assets from the WordPress site."

## Use case

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