forget
GitHub根据 source_id 永久删除记忆。用户要求遗忘或纠正时触发,需先确认 ID。优先用 /capture 覆盖而非直接删除以保留历史。操作前务必确认,并自动提交 ~/.origin/ 变更。

/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="<source_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
supersedespointing at the old one. That preserves history. Use/capturewith thesupersedesarg instead. - Bulk deletions — call
/reviewfirst, 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 user.email=daemon@origin.local \
commit --quiet -m "forget: <source_id>" 2>/dev/null || \
(sleep 1 && git -C ~/.origin add -A && \
git -C ~/.origin -c user.name=Origin -c user.email=daemon@origin.local \
commit --quiet -m "forget: <source_id>" 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.
