delete-x

name	delete-x
description	Delete an X (Twitter) post by URL.

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

Input

• target_url: https://x.com/<handle>/status/<id>.

Output

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

Steps

1. browser_navigate → target_url.
2. Click the "..." caret on the tweet (visible at top-right of the tweet card).
3. Click "Delete" in the popup.
4. Confirm in the second modal.
5. Wait for the "Your post was deleted" toast.
6. Verify removal:
   • browser_navigate → target_url.
   • Look for the "Hmm...this page doesn't exist" marker.
7. mcp__playwright__browser_close.

Quirks

• "..." appears only on tweets you own. If the page loads but the caret is missing, you are not signed in as the owner — return { "error": "delete_no_permission" }.
• Bookmark / mute options live in the same dropdown — read item text before clicking, do not rely on position.
• Replies and quote-retweets of the deleted tweet remain (X behavior); the round-trip test only cares about the original tweet URL.

Failure handling

• Already gone → { "deleted": true, "verified_gone": true, "note": "already gone" }.

Don'ts

• Do not call other skills.
• Do not "Hide replies" or "Mute" instead of delete.
