## Why transkribus_search_reset_index is rated Critical

Resetting a search index is an irreversible destructive operation that wipes existing indexed data. While the index can potentially be rebuilt, the act of resetting it destroys the current index state. This could cause loss of search functionality and indexed content across an entire platform or specific collection, making it high severity.

From the tool's own definition: "Reset the search index"

## Use case

AI agents call transkribus_search_reset_index 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.
