How does this skill prevent broken links in my documentation?

The skill uses Grep to scan the entire repository for incoming references to the target file. It presents a dependency report before deletion so you can choose to update those links first.

What happens if I try to delete a file in a protected directory?

The skill reads the local RULE.md file. If the directory is marked as immutable or archive-only, the skill will block the deletion or force an archival move instead of a permanent delete.

Does this skill update my project README files?

Yes, it automatically parses the directory's README.md, removes the entry for the deleted file, and logs the removal in a 'Recent Changes' section to maintain a clean index.

Can I use this for bulk deletions?

Absolutely. You can request to delete multiple files or entire directories. The skill will aggregate all dependencies and governance rules into a single summary for your confirmation.

Content Management

Automates safe file deletion within knowledge bases by enforcing directory rules and managing link dependencies.

This skill provides a structured, safety-first approach to removing or archiving content while maintaining the integrity of your documentation or knowledge base. It automatically scans for incoming cross-references to prevent broken links, consults local RULE.md files to respect directory-specific governance policies (such as mandatory archiving or backup requirements), and ensures that directory indexes like README.md are updated immediately after a file is removed.

Key Features

01Comprehensive impact assessment and confirmation prompts before execution

02Automatic index maintenance and README.md updates after every deletion

03Policy enforcement via local RULE.md governance files for archival or backups

04Automated dependency and cross-reference checking to prevent broken links

05Support for permanent deletion, archival, and soft-delete workflows
