hrm, update-in isn't meant to be used that way.
Here's an example from clojuredocs:
user=> (def p {:name "James" :age 26})
#'user/p
user=> (update-in p [:age] inc)
{:name "James", :age 27}
;; remember, the value of p hasn't changed!
user=> (update-in p [:age] + 10)
{:name "James", :age 36}
The second arg is like a 'path' to the value to update.
In your code, here: (commute items #(remove (fn [x](= (:id x) id)) %))
Seems like % might have started out as a vector, but it gets returned as a
seq. That's the first thing to fix, seqs don't have keys.
Vectors have integer keys, but my intuition says you probably want to be
storing a map of ids to records, in which case, something like:
(commute items #(update-in % [:id] (fn [my-record]
(do-something-that-returns-a-new-record my-record))))
and your use of 'remove' could simply be a dissoc by id.
