WHAT IT DOES

What snapshot_task_delete does on Nasbridge

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

RISK

Why snapshot_task_delete is rated Critical

Deleting a periodic snapshot task is irreversible. It not only removes the task configuration but also stops future automated snapshots from being created, which could lead to data loss if the snapshots were serving as the sole backup mechanism. This is a destructive action with high blast radius in a storage management context.

snapshot_task_delete Hidden

snapshot_task_delete is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
