SmartConsole Extension - Easy deletion of unused rules

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

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.

Install Smart Console Extension:

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

It does the following:

Version 1.1:

• 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.

Version 1.2:

• In the new version 1.2, I have added the layer, so it should now work with any layer.
  Furthermore, the list of objects to be deleted is now automatically loaded when the page is opened.

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:
