+Remove rows from a table.
+
+## Request

+{
+  "action": "delete",
+  "table": "items",
+  "filter": {
+    "column": "id",
+    "op": "=",
+    "value": 42
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Fields
+
+| Field    | Type   | Required | Notes                   |
+|----------|--------|----------|-------------------------|
+| `action` | string | yes      | must be `"delete"`      |
+| `table`  | string | yes      | target table            |
+| `where`  | object | yes*     | simple key value filter |
+| `filter` | object | yes*     | structured filter       |
+
+*at least one of `where` or `filter` is required. no unfiltered deletes lol.
+
+## Response
+
+```json
+{
+  "success": true,
+  "rows_affected": 1
+}
+```
+
+## Behaviors
+
+- WHERE clause is **mandatory**. same as update, no blanket deletes allowed. jsonderulo doesnt want you nuking entire tables on accident
+- ownership scoping should be applied based on your permission level
+- limit should be applied and capped to your max
+- you need write permission on the table (`rw`, `rwa`, `rwo`, `rwg`)
