Delete a snapshot from a Storage Box. ⚠️ DESTRUCTIVE: The snapshot will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.
AI agents call hetzner_delete_storage_box_snapshot to permanently remove resources in Hetzner MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool irreversibly deletes data (storage box snapshots) with no undo capability. Destructive is the most severe applicable category. Severity is 'high' rather than 'critical' because the impact is scoped to individual snapshots rather than entire infrastructure or financial systems, though the permanent data loss is significant.
From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states: 'Delete a snapshot from a Storage Box' and includes warning 'The snapshot will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.' The tool name contains 'delete' and the description confirms irreversible data loss.
