What clear_recycle_bin does on 1Panel MCP Server
AI agents call clear_recycle_bin to permanently remove resources in 1Panel MCP Server, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why clear_recycle_bin is rated Critical
Clearing the recycle bin destroys data irreversibly and cannot be undone. While the blast radius depends on what files are in the bin, the operation itself is inherently destructive. This is classified as Destructive rather than Write because the action permanently purges data rather than merely modifying it.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'clear_recycle_bin' and description 'Clear recycle bin' indicate permanent deletion of files from the recycle bin. This operation irreversibly removes data that cannot be recovered through normal means.
