Delete a task from a card.
AI agents call mcp_delete_task to permanently remove resources in Another Planka MCP — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes a task, which cannot be undone through the tool's normal operation. Task deletion is an irreversible data loss operation. Although the blast radius is somewhat contained (a single task rather than an entire card or board), the Destructive category takes precedence over Write when deletion is involved.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'mcp_delete_task' and description states 'Delete a task from a card.' The verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of data.
