What cancel_pipeline does on GitLab Pipeline MCP Server

AI agents call cancel_pipeline to permanently remove resources in GitLab Pipeline MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why cancel_pipeline needs a policy

Canceling a pipeline is an irreversible action: the running pipeline is stopped and cannot be resumed. Any in-progress jobs are terminated, deployments or builds that were underway are aborted, and the pipeline state is permanently set to 'canceled'. This cannot be undone — a new pipeline would need to be triggered.

From the tool's definition cancel_pipeline — '取消 GitLab 流水线' (Cancel GitLab pipeline). The server description explicitly lists 'canceling pipelines' as a supported operation.
