Since deleting unused rules always annoyed me, I created a SmarteConsole plugin.
It does the following:
- Shows all rules in SmartConsole that have not been used (hit counter = 0).
- Lets you select any of the unused rules you want to delete.
- Generates the CLI commands for the Management Server to delete those rules.
You only need to copy and paste the output into an SSH session on the SMS.
I deliberately did not automate the deletion directly in SmartConsole, to avoid accidental rule removal if the tool is misused.

PS:
I quickly created the SmartConsole extension during the last two days of my vacation.
When I have a bit more time, I’ll build a nicer version and make it available in the tools section.
Versions:
1.0 Basic version 08/20/2025
1.1 Public community version 08/27/2025
1.2 Add layers and autoload 09/01/2025

Hello @Francis_Noel
It seems that in newer SmartConsoles there is a fundamental issue with Smart Console Extensions. Please follow the post below, where this error is being addressed:

It might make more sense for the CLI commands to be ones you can copy/paste to the Command Line available in SmartConsole.
Or maybe it can be an option, just a thought.
That's a good suggestion. I would add the "creation date", as well, as most of the times we don't want to remove the rules that are created or modified recently (probably in order to facilitate for some traffic that is expected in the future).
