replaced my bikes master cylinder, flushed the fluid and as i was closing the bleed valve off it broke right off. the caliper is closed off so the breaks will function but now i won't be able to flush the system anymore.

Yeah it's plugged up so right now it's non issue until I go to flush it again. Should I invest in a screw/bolt extractor kit and just buy a new bleeder screw? Or just buy a new caliper altogether?

Idk the set up on a bike, but if I was going to attempt to extract a sheared valve on a cars caliper Id probably remove the caliper to start, and if I was going to do that Id think about just replacing it altogether since its off and the brake lines are disconnected anyway.
