work-delete

A command for deleting a tracked work item, with an optional choice to remove its specification file too. A specification file is a written description of the item and its requirements.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review an item’s dependents, delete the item alone or with its specification file, or cancel. Deletion cannot be undone, and dependent items must be updated manually.
Why use it?
It helps remove obsolete tasks while showing whether other tasks depend on them, reducing the chance of overlooking broken references.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

work-delete scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Work Item Delete

Delete a work item from the system with optional spec file removal.

Usage

sk work-delete "$@"

The work item ID is provided in $ARGUMENTS and passed through "$@".

What It Does

The command will:

  • Display work item details and check for dependents
  • Warn if other work items depend on this one
  • Prompt for confirmation with options:
    • Delete work item only (keep spec file)
    • Delete both work item and spec file
    • Cancel deletion
  • Execute deletion based on your selection
  • Remind you to update dependent work items if needed

Examples

sk work-delete feature_obsolete_item
sk work-delete bug_fixed_issue

Important Notes

  • Deletion is permanent - Work items cannot be recovered
  • Dependents are NOT modified - If other items depend on the deleted item, you must manually update them using /work-update <id> remove-dependency
  • Spec files are optional - You can choose to keep the spec file for reference

Show all command output to the user in a clear, formatted display.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
