The Action Scheduler is a background processing, queue job runner which is built into WooCommerce core. A number of plugins use the Action Scheduler, WooCommerce Subscriptions and WooCommerce Follow-Ups being two of the best known.
WP-CLI makes it easy to delete posts and comments which have been created by the Action Scheduler in WooCommerce. There may be cases where the Action Scheduler might create a large number of posts and comments on your live site, and you want to clear up the data from the site’s database.

To delete comments created by the Action Scheduler, you can run this wp-cli command:
wp comment list --field=comment_ID --'comment_author'='ActionScheduler' --number=1000 | xargs wp comment delete --force
The number can be increased if you have more comments that need to be deleted to 2000 or higher.
