Delete a user note by ID or delete the last published note.
AI agents call xhs_delete_note to permanently remove resources in Xhs — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
An AI agent that decides to call xhs_delete_note doesn't hesitate, doesn't double-check, and doesn't stop at one. Whatever it removes from Xhs is gone — there is no undo for destructive operations.
