WHAT IT DOES

What dns_delete_records does on Hostinger

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

RISK

Why dns_delete_records is rated Critical

This tool irreversibly removes DNS records, which is a destructive action. Mistaken deletion of DNS records (MX, A, CNAME, etc.) can cause immediate service outages, email failures, or domain accessibility issues. While the deletion is technically reversible via restoration from backups or re-creation, the tool itself performs an irreversible operation without undo capability.

From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly uses 'delete'; description states 'Delete specific DNS records from a domain.' DNS records are critical infrastructure configuration that cannot be trivially restored.
