💡 What: Implemented the forget method to orchestrate deleting memories across episodic, semantic, procedural, and graph subsystems.

🎯 Why: The original forget method was raising NotImplementedError, blocking memory deletion functionalities.

📊 Impact: The forget capability is now fully operational based on provided memory criteria.

🔬 Measurement: Local tests test_forget_functionality.py validated using mocked systems, confirming the deletion sequence and proper string vs. list (duck-typing) edge cases are correctly evaluated.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Improvements
    • Memory deletion operations now accept either single identifiers or lists of identifiers across semantic, procedural, and graph memory systems, providing greater API flexibility
    • Enhanced robustness in processing deletion requests with more consistent and reliable handling across all memory subsystems
    • Improved flexibility in specifying memory deletion criteria

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

MemorySystem.forget() in both infra/src/mnemosyne/core.py and src/ippoc/mnemosyne/core.py is updated to normalize string inputs into single-item lists for semantic IDs, procedural skills, and graph entities. The total_deleted counter is updated using type-based checks on the return values of each subsystem's delete method.

Changes

MemorySystem.forget() — input normalization and type-based delete counting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Semantic deletion: string coercion and type-based counting
infra/src/mnemosyne/core.py, src/ippoc/mnemosyne/core.py
criteria["semantic"]["ids"] is wrapped in a list when a string is supplied. total_deleted is incremented by len(ids) for bool-truthy, by the integer value for int, or by 1 for other truthy returns from delete_memories().
Procedural deletion: string coercion and type-based counting
infra/src/mnemosyne/core.py, src/ippoc/mnemosyne/core.py
criteria["procedural"]["skills"] is wrapped in a list when a string is supplied. Per-skill delete_skill() return is dispatched by type: bool adds 1, int adds the integer, other truthy adds 1.
Graph deletion: string coercion and stricter int check
infra/src/mnemosyne/core.py, src/ippoc/mnemosyne/core.py
criteria["graph"]["entities"] is wrapped in a list when a string is supplied. type(count) is int replaces isinstance for stricter integer detection; fallback remains 1 for non-int truthy results.

Poem

🐇 A string came to forget, just one tiny id,
"No list? No problem!" said the rabbit amid.
It wrapped it in brackets, a tidy array,
Then checked every type as it counted the fray.
Bool, int, or truthy — each gets its just share,
Now forgetting is tidy, with flexible flair! ✨

Apply strict type validation for ids / skills / entities before deletion loops.

Line 323, Line 338, and Line 353 still allow non-string iterables to flow into deletion paths; malformed criteria (like dict/set/mixed types) can be iterated and delete unintended records.
