+- Multiple transports – choose Streamable HTTP --transport http (recommended for web deployments), SSE --transport sse (real‑time streaming), or stdio (classic pipe, default)
 - Integrated logging – all actions written to a rotating file (see get_log_file_location()) and mirrored to console in dev
 - Local file ingestion – feed .md, source files, Cursor rule‑sets, etc. straight from disk
 - Background pipelines – long‑running cognify & codify jobs spawn off‑thread; check progress with status tools

-- codify: Analyse a code repository, build a code graph, stores it in memory

-- search: Query memory – supports GRAPH_COMPLETION, RAG_COMPLETION, CODE, CHUNKS, INSIGHTS
+- **search**: Query memory – supports GRAPH_COMPLETION, RAG_COMPLETION, CODE, CHUNKS, INSIGHTS
 
-- prune: Reset cognee for a fresh start
+- **list_data**: List all datasets and their data items with IDs for deletion operations
 
-- cognify_status / codify_status: Track pipeline progress
+- **delete**: Delete specific data from a dataset (supports soft/hard deletion modes)
+
+- **prune**: Reset cognee for a fresh start (removes all data)
+
+- **cognify_status / codify_status**: Track pipeline progress
+
+**Data Management Examples:**
+```bash
+# List all available datasets and data items
+list_data()
+
+# List data items in a specific dataset
+list_data(dataset_id="your-dataset-id-here")
+
+# Delete specific data (soft deletion - safer, preserves shared entities)
+delete(data_id="data-uuid", dataset_id="dataset-uuid", mode="soft")
+
+# Delete specific data (hard deletion - removes orphaned entities)
+delete(data_id="data-uuid", dataset_id="dataset-uuid", mode="hard")
+```
 
 Remember – use the CODE search type to query your code graph. For huge repos, run codify on modules incrementally and cache results.
