Delete a bucket from object storage
AI agents call object_delete_bucket to permanently remove resources in Zadara Storage MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Deleting a bucket is an irreversible destructive operation that removes storage infrastructure and potentially all data it contains. This cannot be undone and has high blast radius if triggered by an AI agent against the wrong bucket. While not financial, it ranks above Execute/Write in severity due to permanent data loss potential.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'object_delete_bucket' and description states 'Delete a bucket from object storage'. The verb 'delete' applied to a bucket—a container for data—is irreversible and removes all associated resources.
