Delete a Coolify server
AI agents call delete_server to permanently remove resources in Coolify MCP Tools — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a server is a destructive action that cannot be undone—it permanently removes the entire server instance and all associated data, configurations, and deployments. This represents maximum blast radius if triggered inappropriately by an AI agent, potentially causing significant operational damage and data loss. This is the most severe category applicable.
