Delete a research topic and all its data.
AI agents call delete_research_topic to permanently remove resources in AI Research Assistant MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes data that cannot be recovered. Deletion of 'all its data' associated with a research topic means cascading destruction of potentially large amounts of indexed documents and metadata.
From the tool's definition Tool name and description both indicate permanent deletion: 'Delete a research topic and all its data.' The use of 'Delete' and 'all its data' clearly signals irreversible removal of information.
