What delete_knowledge does on Adaptive Agent

AI agents call delete_knowledge to permanently remove resources in Adaptive Agent — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.

Why delete_knowledge needs a policy

This tool irreversibly deletes knowledge entries from the system's memory and knowledge graph. Unlike reversible write operations (create, update), deletion cannot be undone. In the context of a self-evolving RAG system that maintains user preferences, daily logs, and knowledge graphs, unauthorized or mistaken deletion could cause permanent loss of critical contextual data that the AI agent relies upon.

From the tool's definition Tool name is 'delete_knowledge' and description explicitly states '物理删除指定的知识条目' (physically delete specified knowledge entries). The [DANGER] prefix in the description further signals destructive intent.
