From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly states 'delete_oauth_client' and description confirms 'Delete an OAuth client'. The verb 'delete' indicates irreversible removal of a resource.

The rule that runs delete_oauth_client safely

delete_oauth_client is removed from the agent's tool list entirely, so the agent never calls it. The rest of the server keeps working.
