## Why TRELLO_DELETE_CHECKLISTS_BY_ID_CHECKLIST is rated Critical

This tool performs irreversible deletion of data (a checklist and its contents). The description uses the words 'permanently' and 'irreversibly', which are hallmarks of destructive operations. While the blast radius is limited to a single checklist rather than entire boards or accounts, the permanent data loss and inability to undo the action classify it as Destructive.

From the tool's own definition: "Tool description explicitly states 'Permanently and irreversibly deletes a Trello checklist and all its items'."

## Use case
