Deletes multiple records of a specified SObject type in bulk, given their IDs.
AI agents call bulk_delete_records to permanently remove resources in MCP Salesforce Connector — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes data from Salesforce without possibility of reversal (unless backup/recovery is available outside the tool). Bulk deletion at scale has extreme blast radius if an AI agent misuses it with incorrect record IDs or selection criteria. This is the most severe category applicable.
From the tool's definition 'Deletes multiple records of a specified SObject type in bulk' — the verb 'deletes' combined with 'bulk' and the explicit purpose of record removal indicates irreversible data destruction.
