What memory_forget does on Eve Memory

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

Why memory_forget needs a policy

The name 'memory_forget' implies irreversible removal of stored memory entries from the shared memory service. In a system where 'All agents share one memory, preferences and rules,' deleting memories could have broad impact across all agents and AI tools. The lack of description lowers confidence slightly, but 'forget' in memory systems universally means deletion/erasure rather than a reversible operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'memory_forget' strongly implies permanent deletion or removal of memory data. The description is empty, providing no additional context.
