Remove a configured local event hook.
AI agents call remove_local_event_hook to permanently remove resources in Todos — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Removing an event hook is an irreversible deletion of a configuration element. Once removed, any automation or triggers tied to that hook would cease to function, and the configuration would need to be recreated. This fits the Destructive category as it cannot be undone without manual reconfiguration.
