To sanitize secrets in configuration files before handoff, replace sensitive values with placeholders instead of deleting the entire file. This skill detects exposed config values and sanitizes them in place to ensure safe repository distribution.

Yes, you can preview files during Python cache cleanup using a dry-run review. This skill detects removable paths like build artifacts and temporary data, shows the cleanup plan for user confirmation, and executes deletions only after approval.

The cleanup process can optionally preserve data and logs when preparing a codebase for archiving. It safely removes Python caches and IDE files while allowing you to retain necessary data directories during the packaging and handoff workflow.

The best way to remove distribution blockers from a Python project is to automate the detection and deletion of build leftovers and accidental secrets. This skill uses a cleanup script to sanitize configurations and strip clutter for a shareable codebase.

You should sanitize configuration files instead of deleting them before a release to maintain project structure while protecting sensitive data. Replacing secret values with placeholders keeps configs functional for teammates without exposing actual credentials.
