What delete_data does on MySQL MCP

AI agents call delete_data to permanently remove resources in MySQL MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why delete_data needs a policy

This tool performs irreversible deletion of database records. Unlike Write operations that modify data reversibly, delete_data cannot be undone without external backups. Even with transaction rollback capability, the primary intent and effect is destructive data loss. Given the database context and direct access to delete rows, misuse could result in permanent loss of critical business data.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_data' and description '从表中删除数据' (delete data from table) indicate irreversible data removal. The verb 'delete' is a core destructive operation that removes records from a database without recovery capability.
