SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps manage disk space by automatically identifying and removing unnecessary files and directories within your workspace, such as temporary files and reinstallable dependencies.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Selective Deletion: Safely removes only known temporary files, cache directories, and reinstallable dependencies like node_modules and venv.
  • Protected Directories: Never touches critical files or directories like memory logs, skills, scripts, or documentation.
  • Use Case: After a large development cycle, your workspace might accumulate gigabytes of node_modules folders. This Skill can quickly identify and remove them, freeing up significant disk space without risking important project files.
