What delete_object does on MinIO Storage MCP

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

Why delete_object needs a policy

This tool permanently removes objects from MinIO storage with no undo capability. While the blast radius is limited to a single object at a time (unlike delete_bucket or delete_objects which affect multiple items), it is still a destructive operation. Severity is 'high' rather than 'critical' because impact is typically scoped to one object unless called in a loop.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'delete_object' and description '删除存储桶中的对象' (delete object from storage bucket) indicates irreversible deletion of data from object storage.
