Delete one approval rule for the specified object.
AI agents call delete_approval_rule to permanently remove resources in Sanka MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool irreversibly deletes approval rules, which are operational governance artifacts. Once deleted, the rule is gone and workflows may break or lose validation steps. This is destructive because deletion cannot be undone (the rule must be manually recreated).
From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete one approval rule' - explicit deletion of a configuration object that cannot be recovered without recreation.
