forget

--- name: forget description: > Delete a memory from Origin by ID. Destructive and cannot be undone — prefer `/capture` with `supersedes` for corrections. Invoked as `/forget `. argument-hint: "" allowed-tools: ["Bash", "mcp__plugin_origin_origin__forget", "mcp__plugin_origin_origin__recall"] --- # /forget Permanently delete a memory by its `source_id`. ## How to invoke You need the `source_id`. If the user did not provide it, call `/recall` first to find the matching memory and confirm with the user before deleting. ``` forget(memory_id="") ``` ## When to use - User says "forget this", "delete that", "that's wrong, remove it". - User explicitly identifies a memory by ID. ## When NOT to use - For corrections, prefer storing a new memory with `supersedes` pointing at the old one. That preserves history. Use `/capture` with the `supersedes` arg instead. - Bulk deletions — call `/review` first, confirm with the user, then delete one at a time. ## Safety Deletion is destructive. Always confirm with the user before calling forget, unless the user has already given an explicit, unambiguous instruction in the same turn (e.g. they pasted the ID and said "delete this"). ## Auto-commit ~/.origin/ If the deletion removed a page md (daemon archives the page and KnowledgeWriter unlinks the file), snapshot the change. Defensive — silent skip if `git` missing, `~/.origin/` not a repo, or no diff. ``` Bash: git -C ~/.origin add -A && \ git -C ~/.origin -c user.name=Origin -c [email protected] \ commit --quiet -m "forget: " 2>/dev/null || \ (sleep 1 && git -C ~/.origin add -A && \ git -C ~/.origin -c user.name=Origin -c [email protected] \ commit --quiet -m "forget: " 2>/dev/null) || true ``` The retry handles index.lock races — the daemon may be writing to `~/.origin/` at the same moment (auto-commit from captures). One-second wait is enough for the daemon to release the lock.
