What delete_channel_message does on Huly
AI agents call delete_channel_message to permanently remove resources in Huly, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why delete_channel_message is rated Critical
This tool irreversibly deletes data (a channel message) with no undo capability. Destructive category is appropriate because the action cannot be reversed. Severity is high because an AI agent with unchecked access could delete important team communications, project discussions, or critical information stored in channel messages, causing information loss and potential disruption to team coordination.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Permanently delete a channel message. This action cannot be undone.' The words 'Permanently delete' and 'cannot be undone' directly indicate irreversible data destruction.

The rule that runs delete_channel_message safely

delete_channel_message is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
