What transkribus_job_undo does on Transkribus
AI agents call transkribus_job_undo to permanently remove resources in Transkribus, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Why transkribus_job_undo is rated Critical
Undoing job results reverses previously completed work (e.g., HTR/OCR transcription results applied to documents), which is likely irreversible or at least destructive to the output data produced by that job. This goes beyond a simple write/update as it removes or reverts processed results that may not be recoverable.

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