Delete a board
AI agents call trello_delete_board to permanently remove resources in Trello MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a board is a destructive operation that cannot be undone. It permanently removes data and is more severe than individual card/list deletions. While not financial, the potential for damage to business workflows and data loss justifies a 'high' severity rating in an agentic context where misuse could wipe out entire projects.
From the tool's definition 'Delete a board' - the tool irreversibly removes an entire board and all its contents (lists, cards, comments, attachments).
