# Symaira EraseMe: AI Agent Skill Bundle

**Automated data broker removal tool — close your accounts, erase your data.**

This skill bundle teaches AI agents (Claude Code, OpenClaw, Cursor, Windsurf,
Hermes, GitHub Copilot, Codex, etc.) how to orchestrate GDPR/CCPA data broker
removals using the Symaira EraseMe CLI.

## When to use Symaira EraseMe

Use this skill when the user wants to:

- Remove their personal data from data broker databases
- Exercise GDPR/CCPA right to erasure / right to delete
- Plan and execute a data broker opt-out campaign
- Track the status of removal requests
- Respond to broker replies (verifications, rejections)
- Schedule recurring maintenance (tick engine, quarterly re-scans)

## Error handling

- **Consent required**: Destructive commands (`execute`) require `--yes` or a consent token.
- **No profile**: Run `init-profile` first if commands fail with "No identity profile found."
- **No database**: Commands auto-init the database, but `db-init` can be run manually.
- **API key missing**: `classify-reply` and `generate-rebuttal` need `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`.
- **IMAP errors**: Check credentials and app-specific password for Gmail/Outlook.
- **Web form failures**: Use `manual-tasks list` to find fallback tasks, then complete them.

## Best practices

1. **Always dry-run first**: Use `--dry-run` with `execute` and `tick` before real execution.
2. **Batch sizes**: Start with `--batch-size 3` to avoid rate limits; increase gradually.
3. **Consent tokens**: Issue short-lived tokens with `grant execute --ttl 3600` for automation.
4. **Daily triage**: Run `poll-inbox` + `classify-reply` daily to catch broker responses.
5. **Review plans**: Always `plan show` and review with the user before executing.
6. **Quarterly re-scans**: Run `plan create` with a new campaign ID every quarter to catch new brokers.
