# Delete Review

`DELETE /reviews/{review_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.kobaltlabs.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.kobaltlabs.com/reviews/{review_id}`
- Auth: none declared

Soft-delete a past (completed or cancelled) review.

Restricted to Kobalt admins (validate_admin_role returns 404 for
everyone else). Works during hard masquerade (company_id is swapped,
so no write restriction applies) but not during soft masquerade,
where the standard non-GET block in get_user_info rejects it. The
row is retained for audit/history; list and detail endpoints filter
on ``deleted_at IS NULL`` so the review disappears everywhere.

## Path parameters

- `review_id` string, uuid, required

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- StatusResponse
  - `status` string

## Other responses

- `422`: Validation Error
