WHAT IT DOES

What sheet_delete does on Mcp Anything

AI agents call sheet_delete to permanently remove resources in Mcp Anything, typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

RISK

Why sheet_delete is rated Critical

Deletion of spreadsheet sheets is an irreversible operation that destroys data. Even though it includes a safeguard ('Cannot delete the last sheet'), the core action permanently removes a sheet and its contents from the workbook. This falls squarely into the Destructive category due to its irreversible nature.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'sheet_delete' and description explicitly states 'Delete a sheet from the active Calc spreadsheet'. The verb 'delete' combined with operation on spreadsheet data indicates irreversible removal.

sheet_delete Hidden
