Implementation Reference
- couchdb_mcp_server.py:403-414 (handler)The actual handler implementation for deleting a document from CouchDB. Takes database name, document ID, and revision, then uses the CouchDB Python library's delete() method to remove the document. Handles various exceptions including database not found, document not found, and revision conflicts.
