What repo_cleanup does on Kubesearch

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

Why repo_cleanup needs a policy

Although the tool deletes 'temporary' clones (suggesting limited scope and reversibility through re-cloning), the action itself is a permanent deletion that cannot be undone without re-executing repo_clone. The incomplete description weakens confidence slightly, but the word 'Delete' combined with the tool's purpose clearly indicates a Destructive operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'repo_cleanup' with description 'Delete a temporary clone created by' indicates deletion of cloned repository data. This is an irreversible removal operation, matching the Destructive category definition.
