overlane memory delete

Delete a memory with its vectors and enrichment records

Updated View as MarkdownOpen in ChatGPTOpen in Claude

Removes the memory content, its vector and every record derived from it. A team-wide agent token can delete; deleting confirmed or team memory is a deletion-class action that needs an independent agent or a person. This cannot be undone. Without a terminal it needs –force.

Usage

overlane memory delete [memory-id] [--service URL] [--team TENANT_ID] [--dry-run] [--force]

Arguments

Argument Required Description
memory-id no The memory to delete (required)

Flags

Flag Type Required Default Description
--service string no The service address (default: OVERLANE_SERVICE_URL, then the project’s binding, then the hosted service)
--team string no The team (tenant) to act on (default: the one your token belongs to)
--dry-run boolean no Print the requests and file changes this command would make, then stop. Needs no credentials.
--force boolean no Confirm a destructive action when there is no terminal to ask on. Without it, exit 2.

Examples

overlane memory delete mem_ab12 --force
overlane memory delete mem_ab12 --dry-run

Behavior

  • Effect: destructive (deletes or reverts; needs --force without a terminal).
  • Needs credentials: yes. Uses the network: yes.
  • Supports --dry-run: yes. Accepts --force: yes.
  • Machine-readable description: overlane schema memory delete.

Result

With --json (the default when stdout is not a terminal) the command prints this JSON Schema’s shape on stdout.
