Delete an open question
AI agents call karea_delete_question to permanently remove resources in Karea — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
This tool permanently removes a question record from the task management system. Deletion is an irreversible operation that cannot be undone programmatically. While the blast radius is bounded to a single question entity (not system-wide), accidental deletion of important questions could disrupt task tracking workflows and lose information.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'karea_delete_question' and description states 'Delete an open question' — the verb 'delete' explicitly indicates irreversible removal of data.
