# LinkedIn — Delete post

Automatically delete post on linkedin.com. Permanently delete one of the logged-in member's own LinkedIn posts by its permalink, via the post's own control menu (••• > Delete post > confirm). If the post is already gone, it returns already_deleted instead of throwing an error. Refuses to guess on a post that isn't the account's own (no Delete option in the control menu).

## Run it

Ask an AI agent connected to Reduck over MCP (`https://mcp.reduck.ai/mcp`) to run `reduck/linkedin.com/delete_post`, or run it from a terminal:

```bash
npx @reduck-ai/cli@latest run --script reduck/linkedin.com/delete_post
```

## Input

- `url` (string, required): The post's permalink, e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:.../ or urn:li:share:.../ — as returned by create_post, get_post, or get_profile_posts (repost permalinks work too). Query string is stripped.

## Output

- `url` (string, required): The permalink acted on (query string stripped).
- `deleted` (boolean, required): True once this run's own Delete confirmation went through.
- `account_used` (object, required): The real account the deletion was performed under, echoed from the session/UI.
- `already_deleted` (boolean, required): True only when the post was positively shown to be gone before this run acted — a rendered not-found state, or the activity absent from the account's own recent-activity feed. Never inferred from a missing control menu.
- `verified_on_page` (boolean, required): True if the script independently confirmed the deletion took effect — not just that the confirm click went through.
