Bulk delete messages in a channel
AI agents call bulk_delete_messages to permanently remove resources in Discord MCP Server — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Bulk deletion of messages is irreversible and destroys data that cannot be recovered. This is a destructive operation with no undo capability.
