    • The description says "Permanently delete".
    • The server marks it destructive (destructiveHint: true).
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Permanently delete a saved template. This cannot be undone, and renders that reference its template_id will fail afterwards. Confirm with the user first.

    • The name "create_template" says "create": a word for a change.
    Description, as the server wrote it

    Description, as the server wrote it

Each successful call uses one render from the account's monthly quota; nothing is stored. Over quota or invalid input returns a tool error explaining why.
