| **Address**   | `https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/s3/buckets/{bucket}/objects/{wildcard1}` |
| **Method**    | `DELETE`                                                          |

Removes one object and answers 204.

It removes ONE object and never a prefix: a key that looks like a folder deletes
the placeholder at that key, not the objects beneath it. The key is path-cleaned
first, so the delete cannot reach outside the bucket it names, and a bucket the
caller's org does not own is the same 404 an unknown name gives.

Billed per call: the balance is checked BEFORE anything is touched, so an
unfunded org is refused with nothing deleted, and the debit lands only once the
object is gone.

## Request

2 fields.

| Field       | In   | Type   | Required | Description                                                                           |
| ----------- | ---- | ------ | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `bucket`    | path | string | yes      | Bucket is the bucket's friendly name, from the path.                                  |
| `wildcard1` | path | string | yes      | Key is the object's key within the bucket — everything after that bucket's /objects/. |

## Response

| Status    | Body            | Meaning    |
| --------- | --------------- | ---------- |
| `204`     | —               | no content |
| `default` | problem-details | refused    |

Failure carries the platform error shape — see [Errors](https://docs.hanzo.ai/docs/errors).

## Examples

**CLI**

```bash
hanzo s3 buckets objects rm <bucket> <wildcard1>
```

**SDK**

**.ts**

```ts
import { Configuration, S3Api } from 'hanzoai';

const api = new S3Api(new Configuration({ accessToken: process.env.HANZO_API_KEY }));
const { data } = await api.deleteS3BucketsByBucketObjectsByWildcard1({ bucket: 'bucket', wildcard1: 'wildcard1' });
```

**.py**

```python
from hanzoai.cloud import ApiClient, Configuration
from hanzoai.cloud.api import S3Api

client = ApiClient(Configuration(access_token=os.environ["HANZO_API_KEY"]))
result = S3Api(client).delete_s3_buckets_by_bucket_objects_by_wildcard1(bucket='bucket', wildcard1='wildcard1')
```

**.go**

```go
cfg := hanzoai.NewConfiguration()
cfg.AddDefaultHeader("Authorization", "Bearer "+os.Getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"))
client := hanzoai.NewAPIClient(cfg)

resp, _, err := client.S3API.DeleteS3BucketsByBucketObjectsByWildcard1(context.Background()).Execute()
if err != nil {
	return err
}
```

**.rs**

```rust
use hanzo_client::apis::{configuration::Configuration, s3_api};

let mut cfg = Configuration::new();
cfg.bearer_access_token = std::env::var("HANZO_API_KEY").ok();

let result = s3_api::delete_s3_buckets_by_bucket_objects_by_wildcard1(&cfg, Default::default()).await?;
```

**.java**

```java
import ai.hanzo.cloud.ApiClient;
import ai.hanzo.cloud.api.S3Api;

ApiClient client = new ApiClient();
client.setBearerToken(System.getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"));

var result = new S3Api(client).deleteS3BucketsByBucketObjectsByWildcard1();
```

The method above is the one at the current release of the document. `hanzoai@8.5.914` (npm) and `hanzoai@8.5.914` (PyPI) were generated from an earlier release, where this operation carried a different id, so it spells the method differently — regenerating the clients is what makes the two agree.

**HTTP**

```bash
curl -X DELETE https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/s3/buckets/<bucket>/objects/<wildcard1> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY"
```

**MCP**

MCP reaches **s3** through the `s3` tool, which names its 13 operations with its own verbs — this one among them, under a name only MCP declares. `describe` explains any of them:

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "jsonrpc": "2.0",
       "id": 1,
       "method": "tools/call",
       "params": {
         "name": "describe",
         "arguments": {
           "op": "list_s3_buckets"
         }
       }
     }'
```
