What problem does it solve?

This skill resolves the issue where the skills-manager software leaves behind residual folders after a failed installation, which prevents the user from attempting a fresh installation of the same skill.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated Cleanup: Automatically detects and removes orphaned directories in the skills-manager installation path.
  • Safety Validation: Includes a confirmation step to ensure only the specified, non-functional skill folder is deleted.
  • Use Case: If you attempted to install a skill and it failed, leaving a folder behind that blocks a retry, this tool safely wipes that directory so you can start the installation process over.
