Takes the target memory's ID in the JSON body as `memoryId`. Soft-deletes (archives) the memory. This form was added for parity with the contacts collection. Most agents should prefer the path-parameter version (`DELETE /api/nucleus/memories/{id}`) which is idempotent. This collection-level form returns 500 on failure rather than 204. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /api-reference/openapi.json delete /api/nucleus/memories openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Audity Agent API version: 1.0.0 summary: >- The agent-facing surface of Audity AI: projects, leads, Nucleus, and account. description: >- Audity is a B2B SaaS for consultants who run automated business audits. This API is the agent-facing slice: a deliberately small set of task-shaped endpoints that lets external AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, n8n) act on a consultant's Audity workspace on their behalf. **Authentication:** Bearer token (`aky_...`) issued from `https://app.auditynow.com/dashboard/settings/api-tokens`. The middleware resolves the token to a Clerk user identity; tier and Row-Level Security gates apply automatically. **Rate limits:** reads 100/min, writes 20/min, async job polling 120/min; some expensive or high-volume endpoints have stricter caps. 429 responses include `Retry-After`. **Tier gating:** public plan names can change faster than API enum names. Use `GET /api/user/tier` and any `requiredTier` field in 403 responses as the source of truth for a specific account. Read-only or lead-generation-focused plans can read available data; audit-capable paid plans unlock writes, subject to token scope and credits. contact: name: Audity Support email: support@auditynow.com url: https://app.auditynow.com license: name: Proprietary identifier: LicenseRef-Audity-Proprietary termsOfService: https://auditynow.com/terms servers: - url: https://app.auditynow.com description: Production security: - bearerAuth: [] tags: - name: Projects description: >- Audit project lifecycle, create, list, fetch, trigger analysis, get deliverables. - name: Leads description: ReadyLink-sourced leads, list, fetch, convert into projects. - name: Nucleus description: >- Nucleus is Audity's persistent memory + insight layer.
