WHAT IT DOES

What delete_admin_user does on Mealie MCP Server

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

RISK

Why delete_admin_user is rated Critical

This tool permanently removes a user account, which cannot be undone and represents irreversible data destruction. While the blast radius is limited to a single user, the destructive nature and potential for admin abuse (removing legitimate users) warrants high severity. Destructive is the appropriate category per the hierarchy (more severe than Write, Execute, or Read).

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_admin_user' and description states 'Delete one admin-visible user by ID' — uses explicit delete verb indicating irreversible removal of a user account.

delete_admin_user Hidden

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