I was working on several actions simultaneously. I have a lot of hidden steps that I want to delete automatically instead of doing it one by one. Is there any automation to speed up the process?

You should the ask in the Photoshop Scripting forum.  I believe the answer will get that it is not possible.  All I have seen in the forum  are scripts playing actions in scripts, Scripts that could process. Action Set *.atn files and convert then to Photoshop scripts .  Also Scripts that loaded and unload.  Action sets.  I do not believe it is possible  for a script to process the full the Actions Palette.  Other the getting Actions set name and actions name and to Play Actions, Also Load and Unload  Actions set in the palette.

You can select multiple steps and delete them all together with the single click on the trash icon. There isn't such thing like Delete > Hidden steps.
