Parameters from the server's own tool schema.
This tool permanently removes email messages and cannot be undone. Deletion of communications is a destructive action with significant consequences—loss of records, compliance violations, or data loss if misused by an AI agent. While not financial or involving large-scale infrastructure, the irreversible nature and potential blast radius (deletion of important correspondence) justifies 'high' severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'email_delete' with description 'Delete an email by UID' explicitly performs an irreversible delete operation on email data.
