## Why ghl_delete_custom_field is rated Critical

This tool irreversibly deletes custom fields and associated data from the CRM system. Permanent data loss cannot be undone, placing it in the Destructive category. Severity is high rather than critical because it affects custom field definitions rather than critical financial or customer contact data wholesale, though the blast radius depends on which field is deleted and how widely it is used in the CRM.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool name 'ghl_delete_custom_field' and description explicitly states 'Delete a custom field by ID. This will permanently remove the field and its data.' The word 'permanently' and 'remove' indicate irreversible deletion."

## Use case
