Delete saved knowledge from ~/.claude/learnings/.

Instructions

1. Parse Query

Argument: $ARGUMENTS

If empty, list all knowledge files and ask which to delete.

2. Find the File

Search ~/.claude/learnings/:

1. Exact slug: ~/.claude/learnings/<slug>.md
2. Partial match: ~/.claude/learnings/*<query>*.md

If multiple matches, list them and ask the user to pick.

3. Confirm Deletion

Show the user:

• File path
• Topic name (from frontmatter)
• Created date

Ask: "Delete this knowledge? (yes/no)"

4. Delete

If confirmed:

Delete the file:

rm ~/.claude/learnings/<slug>.md

Clean up knowledge graph (graceful fallback):

• If mcp__memory__search_nodes and mcp__memory__delete_entities are available: search for a "learning" entity matching the topic and delete it.
• If MCP memory tools are NOT available: skip this step silently. The file deletion is sufficient.

Confirm:

Deleted knowledge on "".
