The tool result reports either \"Artifact deleted\" or \"Artifact was already deleted\", and if the model later encounters a deleted artifact URL it is told the link is dead, cannot be restored, and that republishing the same file produces a new URL.\n\n**Details**\n\n- Two distinct result states, so deleting something already deleted is not reported as an error.\n- The explanatory text for a dead artifact link was rewritten specifically so the model stops trying to revive the old URL.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`The user deleted this Artifact from \/artifacts`\n\n- Area: Artifacts\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
