Deleting a site

The person says: “Delete the test site, permanently.”

No agent deletes a site. The agent asks for it; a workspace Owner confirms it in the console by typing the site’s name, and a backup is taken first. Until then the site is still there, unchanged.

  1. Empress:site_status — what would be lost: live content, versions, an open change set.
  2. Empress:site_call — offer tool: "empress.site_archive" first; ask for a delete only if the person says the archive is not what they want.
  3. Empress:site_call — tool: "empress.site_delete", args: { reason }. The answer is the request and the console link.
  4. Hand the person the link, and say the site stays until an Owner confirms there.
  • Never say the site is gone. The request is not the delete; only the Owner’s confirmation in the console is.
  • Say the irreversible part out loud. “Once confirmed, this deletes the site’s content, media and history.”
  • One site per request. Never batch deletes.
