Delete an option from a work item property.
AI agents call delete_work_item_property_option to permanently remove resources in Plane — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool irreversibly deletes data (a property option) from a work item. Once deleted, the option cannot be recovered without manual intervention or backups. This fits the Destructive category, which covers actions that cannot be undone.
From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly contains 'delete' and description states it will 'Delete an option from a work item property', which is an irreversible operation that removes data.
