Dashboard Delete Button - UI Only
The X button only removes from local UI/history, not the real kontask
Output
Dashboard Delete = UI Only
No, It Does NOT Delete the Real Kontask
The ✕ button only:
- Removes the response group from the DOM
- Marks the kontext ID as "deleted" in
localStorage - Calls
saveHistory()to update local storage
What's Preserved
| ✓ Real kontask | Still in kontasks.jsonl, visible on /kontasks page |
| ✓ Konsole history | Server-side kontexts still exist |
| ✓ Claude's memory | Session context unchanged |
How It Works
// markKontextDeleted() - just localStorage deleted.push(kontextId); localStorage.setItem(DELETED_KONTEXTS_KEY, JSON.stringify(deleted)); // On next restore, deleted IDs are skipped if (deletedKontexts.includes(kontext.id)) continue;
Safe to Use for Cleanup
You can safely delete old prompts from the dashboard to improve performance. The kontasks remain on the /kontasks page if you need them later.
