## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0)

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "reset_thinking_profile",
    "arguments": {}
  }
}
```

## Why reset_thinking_profile is rated Critical

This tool permanently deletes all thinking_profile_events and overwrites the thinking-profile.yaml configuration file. These are stateful artifacts that cannot be recovered once cleared. While the blast radius is confined to the user's local machine and the data is not financial or sensitive in the security sense, the action is irreversible and destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'Clear all thinking_profile_events and reset thinking-profile.yaml to defaults' — uses 'Clear' and 'reset' indicating irreversible deletion and overwriting of configuration data."

Risk signals: Bulk/mass operation — affects multiple targets

## Use case
