Why delete-diagram needs a policy

This tool permanently deletes entire Lucid documents without recovery options. The description explicitly states it 'removes the ENTIRE document' and acknowledges there is 'no shape-level delete or in-place edit', indicating the action is all-or-nothing and irreversible. While moved to trash (not immediately purged), it constitutes a destructive action that cannot be undone through the API.

From the tool's definition 'Delete a Lucid document by moving it to the trash. This removes the ENTIRE document' — the tool irreversibly removes complete documents with no undo capability mentioned.
