What delete_post does on Portfolio

AI agents call delete_post to permanently remove resources in Portfolio — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why delete_post needs a policy

Deletion is an irreversible operation that permanently removes data (a blog post). This falls squarely under Destructive rather than Write, as the action cannot be undone through normal means. The severity is high because loss of published portfolio content could damage reputation or availability.

From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly states 'delete_post' and description confirms 'Delete a post by slug' — this irreversibly removes blog post content.
