This snippet will delete a message using command prefix. You have to click "Reply" to a message and enter the prefix. This will delete that referenced message along with the command.

const lib = require('lib')({token: process.env.STDLIB_SECRET_TOKEN});

const REF_MESSAGE = context.params.event.referenced_message; //This is the message that you have replied to with the !delete-message command

//If you have replied to a message, this will delete that message, and your message with the command prefix
if (REF_MESSAGE) {
  await lib.discord.channels['@0.3.2'].messages.destroy({
    message_id: `${REF_MESSAGE.id}`,
    channel_id: `${context.params.event.channel_id}`,
  });

  await lib.discord.channels['@0.3.2'].messages.destroy({
    message_id: `${context.params.event.id}`,
    channel_id: `${context.params.event.channel_id}`,
  });
} else {
  await lib.discord.channels['@0.3.2'].messages.create({
    channel_id: `${context.params.event.channel_id}`,
    content: `Hey <@!${context.params.event.author.id}>, reply to a message!`,
  });
}
