PR #19964: Add kanban archive --rm for archived tasks

Description (problem / solution / changelog)

Summary

  • add hermes kanban archive --rm <task-id ...> to permanently delete already-archived tasks
  • keep deletion behind an archive-first safety gate so live tasks cannot be removed in one step
  • remove related kanban rows (links, comments, events, runs, notify subscriptions) when an archived task is deleted

Testing

  • pytest tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_db.py -q -k 'delete_archived_task or archive_hides_from_default_list'
  • pytest tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_core_functionality.py -q -k 'archive_bulk or archive_rm'
  • ruff check hermes_cli/kanban.py hermes_cli/kanban_db.py

Closes #19913

Problem or Use Case

In some of my initial playing with Kanban jobs, I had a few misconfigurations that failed badly. I archived them to remove them from the KB board, but to be honest, they add no value and I'd like to delete them.

I don't want to play around with SQLite to remove them, but if there's no harm, then this is an option.

Ideally, I'd like to something like "hermes kanban archive --rm t_60441238"

Proposed Solution

Perhaps add a "hermes kanban archive --rm t_60441238" In the kanban UI, perhaps have a trash-can icon to remove an archived job

This would restrict it to archived entries only, so a user would have to specifically archive jobs to allow this to happen.

Alternatives Considered

Deleting content within SQLite is an option, but not really good practice.

Feature Type

CLI improvement

Scope

None

Contribution

  • I'd like to implement this myself and submit a PR

Debug Report (optional)

extent analysis

TL;DR

Implementing a --rm flag for the hermes kanban archive command could provide a safe way to delete archived jobs.

Guidance

  • Consider the potential impact of adding a delete feature to the Kanban board, ensuring it aligns with the application's data management and user experience goals.
  • Evaluate the proposed hermes kanban archive --rm command syntax for consistency with existing CLI commands and user expectations.
  • Assess the benefits of restricting deletion to archived entries only, as a means to prevent accidental data loss.
  • Investigate the feasibility of adding a trash-can icon to the Kanban UI for removing archived jobs, considering both usability and accessibility aspects.

Example

No code example is provided due to the lack of specific technical details in the issue.

Notes

The implementation should carefully consider data integrity, user permissions, and potential edge cases to ensure the delete feature does not introduce unintended consequences.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement the proposed hermes kanban archive --rm command or a similar solution that allows for the safe deletion of archived jobs, as it directly addresses the user's need without requiring direct SQLite manipulation.
