Delete one admin-visible user by ID.
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.
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.
