## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

  "jsonrpc": "2.0",

## Why purge_drawing is rated Critical

This tool permanently deletes drawing objects (layers, linetypes, text styles, blocks). While the deletions target only 'unused' items, the action cannot be undone and results in data loss. This is the defining characteristic of the Destructive category. The severity is high because accidental or malicious use could corrupt a drawing by removing essential definitions, even if they appear unused.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'purge_drawing' combined with description stating it 'deletes all unused layers, linetypes, text styles, blocks, etc.' (清理图纸：删除所有未使用的图层、线型、文字样式、块等). The operation irreversibly removes data from the drawing."

## Use case

AI agents call purge_drawing to permanently remove resources in Pypi:best Cad, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer)
