$ pipx install threads-cleaner

No API, no accounts, no rate limits

Threads has no public bulk-delete API. Most tools either don't work or require a Meta developer account that can be suspended at any time.

threads-cleaner uses browser automation (Playwright) to click the real Threads UI — the same buttons you'd click manually.

Features

Bulk delete

Delete all your posts, all your replies, or both. Set a max limit or let it run.

Date filters

--older-than 30d or --newer-than 7d. Also accepts ISO dates.

Dry run mode

--dry-run opens the browser and shows what would be deleted — no destructive clicks.

Standalone EXE

Download the single-file executable. No Python, no pip, no dependencies to install.

How it works

The tool opens a phone-sized Chromium window, loads your session cookies, navigates to your profile and replies tab, and clicks each item's "More" menu → "Delete" → confirm. Items are marked so nothing is tried twice. The page scrolls automatically to find everything.
