Delete a draft order permanently.
AI agents call delete_draft_order to permanently remove resources in AdminAgent — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool irreversibly removes data (a draft order) from the Shopify store. Even though the blast radius is limited to draft orders rather than finalized orders, permanent deletion qualifies as Destructive rather than Write. An AI agent misconfiguration could accidentally destroy draft orders that were being prepared for legitimate business purposes, resulting in loss of work and potential business disruption.
From the tool's definition delete_draft_order – description states 'Delete a draft order permanently.' The verb 'delete' combined with 'permanently' indicates an irreversible operation that cannot be undone.
