# Delete Task

`Delete_Task` removes a task record using a single GovTribe task ID.

## Output Contract

* Top-level keys:
  * `response`
* Row keys:
  * `n/a`
* Relationship retrieval map:
  * `task_id` (input context)
    * `tool`: `Search_Tasks`
    * `filter`: `task_ids`
    * `fallback`: after deletion, this lookup may return zero rows; use your previously captured task context for audit history.

## Usage Patterns

Pattern A: Direct delete when the task ID is already known. Tool: `Delete_Task`

```json
{
  "task_id": "<TASK_ID>"
}
```
