aap_delete_credential
AI agents call aap_delete_credential to permanently remove resources in AAP MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
The 'delete' verb places this firmly in the Destructive category rather than Write, as credential deletion is irreversible and cannot be undone through normal operations. While the empty description reduces confidence slightly, the explicit 'delete' in the name and the nature of credential objects (which are typically not recoverable once removed) justify high severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'aap_delete_credential' contains the verb 'delete', which indicates irreversible removal of data. The tool description is empty, but the name strongly signals credential deletion.
