Large language model agents are becoming operational interfaces to files, memories, registries, and external tools. This deployment shift creates a new skill revocation problem: after a skill is removed from an explicit registry, an agent may still reconstruct it from residual carriers such as archives, transcripts, schemas, or memory entries. We study this problem as operational skill unlearning, where the goal is not parameter-level forgetting, but preventing a deployed agent from rebuilding a revoked skill through primitive tools. We introduce OBLIVION, a controlled benchmark and defense harness for revoked-skill resurrection. OBLIVION models each episode as a source-to-sink workflow, applies Cross-Surface Coherent Erasure to reduce residual carriers, and uses frozen workflow remediation near dangerous sinks. On the locked 88 attack episodes, the no-defense arm reaches formal attack success rate 1.0. OBLIVION reduces the rate to 0.114 and impact-weighted exposure to 0.115 while keeping locked utility at 1.0 and benign block rate at 0. In a separate skill-attack-derived sandbox, OBLIVION reduces attack success from 1.0 to 0.2 and impact-weighted exposure from 1.0 to 0.213 while preserving all utility controls. These results support workflow-level evaluation beyond checking explicit skill entries.

The rapid advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs) is revolutionizing AI for Games by enabling open-ended and fluid interactive storytelling. However, existing research has largely overlooked the critical challenge of maintaining long-horizon logical consistency and narrative integrity against unconstrained user interventions. To address this, we formulate this challenge as Narrative Commitment Preservation (NCP), and take interactive narrative as our testbed. We introduce NCP-Bench, a benchmark of 100 narrative environments derived from movie synopses. Each environment includes a structured narrative specification (trajectory, commitments, and initial facts) that we can automatically check throughout the interaction between the player agent and the narrator agent. Experiments across state-of-the-art LLMs reveal a substantial long-horizon consistency gap: high linguistic quality does not guarantee commitment preservation; even strong models frequently generate logically conflicting content under adversarial interventions, with the best-performing model (GPT-5.2) achieving only 42% survival rate after 20 turns and fact conflict rates ranging from 40% to 68% across models, and only isolated runs satisfying all achievement commitments within the 100-turn limit.
