Purge recipe export jobs/files.
AI agents call purge_recipe_exports 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.
The verb 'purge' indicates permanent, irreversible deletion of data (export jobs/files). This is a Destructive operation rather than Write because the action cannot be undone or recovered. While the blast radius is limited to export artifacts rather than core recipe data, the permanent loss of these files and job records warrants high severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'purge' (irreversibly removes data) and description states 'Purge recipe export jobs/files' indicating deletion of stored export artifacts.
