Removes a cell link from a cell
AI agents call remove_cell_link to permanently remove resources in Smartsheet MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Removing a cell link destroys an existing cross-sheet or in-sheet reference relationship. This is not easily reversible as the link configuration must be manually recreated. It falls under Destructive as it permanently deletes a data relationship rather than simply modifying content.
From the tool's definition 'Removes a cell link from a cell' — the word 'removes' indicates an irreversible deletion of the cell link relationship
