RISK

Why contract-testing_delete_secret is rated Critical

This tool permanently deletes data (a secret) with no recovery mechanism. Deletion operations that cannot be undone fall squarely into the Destructive category. The severity is high because an AI agent with access to this tool could delete critical secrets used for authentication, API keys, or other sensitive credentials, causing service disruption or security compromise.

From the tool's definition Tool name contains 'delete' and description states 'Delete a secret by UUID.' The action irreversibly removes a secret resource.
