Does this skill permanently delete files immediately?

No, it first checks the local RULE.md for specific deletion policies. Depending on the rules, it may archive the file, create a backup, or mark it as deleted in the frontmatter instead of permanent removal.

What happens if a directory is marked as immutable?

If a RULE.md specifies that a directory is immutable, the skill will block the deletion, explain the policy reasoning to you, and only proceed if you provide an explicit override command.

How does it prevent broken links in my documentation?

Before any deletion, the skill performs a recursive search (Grep/Glob) to identify every file that references the target. It then presents a dependency report so you can decide how to handle those links.

Does it update my project's README file?

Yes, it automatically parses your README.md to remove entries for the deleted file and updates the 'Recent Changes' section and timestamps to keep your index accurate.

コンテンツ管理

Manages safe file removal and archival by enforcing directory governance rules and checking for cross-reference dependencies.

概要

The Secure Content Deletion skill provides a robust framework for managing file removal within a Claude Code environment. It goes beyond simple deletion by first consulting local governance rules (RULE.md), identifying broken links or dependencies across the repository, and offering safe alternatives like archival or soft-deletes. This skill ensures that your knowledge base remains coherent and indexed by automatically updating README files and notifying you of any high-impact changes before execution, preventing accidental data loss or repository corruption.
