Skywipe

Skywipe is a work-in-progress Python 3.13+ CLI that helps you wipe data from your Bluesky account using the AT Protocol SDK.

Warning: This tool performs destructive operations.

Only use it if you intend to permanently erase data from your Bluesky account.

Requirements

Check pyproject.toml.

You can use uv to install dependencies:

git clone https://git.kharec.info/Kharec/skywipe.git
cd skywipe
uv sync

How to run

While it's being developed, you can use the tool using uv :

uv run python -m skywipe.cli all            # target everything
uv run python -m skywipe.cli configure      # create configuration
uv run python -m skywipe.cli posts          # delete posts
uv run python -m skywipe.cli medias         # delete posts with medias
uv run python -m skywipe.cli likes          # undo likes
uv run python -m skywipe.cli reposts        # undo reposts
uv run python -m skywipe.cli quotes         # delete quotes
uv run python -m skywipe.cli follows        # unfollow all
uv run python -m skywipe.cli bookmarks      # delete bookmarks

Use the --yes flag to skip the confirmation prompt and proceed with the operation.

A log of the operations will be saved in ~/.cache/skywipe/skywipe.log.

Configuration

If you run the tool for the first time, it will prompt you to use skywipe configure to create the configuration file, which is located in ~/.config/skywipe/config.yml :

handle: your_handle
password: your_password
batch_size: 10
delay: 1
verbose: true

BE SURE TO USE A BLUESKY APP PASSWORD FOR OBVIOUS SECURITY REASONS.

Roadmap

build cli parameter management
handle configuration logic
sign in to at protocol
delete posts in batch
only delete posts with media
undo likes
undo reposts
delete quotes
unfollow accounts
remove bookmarks
make all run the other commands
add simple progress and logging
add safeguards (confirmation, dry-run flag)
decent code architecture
installation and run process
