What problem does it solve?
Codebase hygiene sweep: find and clean up stale files, outdated documentation, build artifacts, and accumulated cruft across large repos to reduce maintenance overhead and confusion.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Stale documentation cleanup: identify WIP or outdated docs and align with current features.
- Artifact and directory cleanup: detect empty dirs and stray build outputs not ignored by VCS.
- Documentation gaps & hygiene: flag missing or outdated docs, and suggest updates.
- Git hygiene & ready-state: surface branches, orphaned or merged worktrees, and drift between local and remote.
- Use Case: When a project lingers with old docs and generated artifacts, run this skill to restore clarity and reduce noise.
