How come you don’t just send the md5s to delete rather than the shell script?

I guess it's a more flexible design that allows to change the criteria for deletions in the future. You still need to calculate md5s on the phone either way.

That would definitely work too.

What I like about my process is that there is only one source script (the python one) to keep around.
