name	delete-instagram
description	Delete an Instagram Feed post or Reel by URL.

Common rules: docs/OPERATING_RULES.md. IG-specific deletion only.

Input

• target_url: https://www.instagram.com/p/<id>/ or /reel/<id>/.

Output

{ "deleted": true, "verified_gone": true }

Steps

1. browser_navigate → target_url.
2. Click the "..." (more options) icon on the post (top-right of the modal / page).
3. Click "Delete" / "刪除" in the popup menu.
4. Confirm in the second modal ("Delete post?" / "刪除貼文？").
5. Wait for the redirect (IG drops you back to the profile).
6. Verify removal:
   • browser_navigate → target_url.
   • Look for the "Sorry, this page isn't available." marker via browser_evaluate.
   • Set verified_gone accordingly.
7. mcp__playwright__browser_close.

Quirks

• For Reels, the "..." menu is inside the Reels player overlay, not on a static page. May require hovering / clicking the player first.
• IG sometimes shows a 1-second delay between confirm and redirect — wait briefly before the verify step.
• "Save to drafts" is not deletion. Reject any flow that ends in drafts.

Failure handling

• Already gone → { "deleted": true, "verified_gone": true, "note": "already gone" }.
• "..." menu missing (e.g. archived post) → { "error": "delete_unreachable", "step_failed": "open_menu" }.

Don'ts

• Do not archive the post (different action — keeps it on the account).
• Do not call other skills.
