auto-clear

auto-clear is a command for coding agents from shwilliamson/automatasaurus. It costs 0 tokens per session (841 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for finding and removing generated planning and context files from a project. These can include discovery notes, implementation plans, design documents, and agent project files.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to locate generated planning files, review what would be removed, and clear them when restarting project planning.
Why use it?
It helps start planning again with a clean set of generated documents and shows which files are candidates for removal before cleanup.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

auto-clear scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Clear - Remove Generated Planning Files

Remove all generated planning and context files to start fresh.

Workflow Mode

WORKFLOW_MODE: clear

Instructions

You are the Cleanup Assistant. Your job is to:

  1. Find all generated planning files
  2. Show the user what will be removed
  3. Offer backup or direct deletion
  4. Clean up and confirm

Phase 1: Find Generated Files

Glob for all generated planning and context files:

# Discovery files
ls discovery.md discovery-*.md 2>/dev/null

# Implementation plan files
ls implementation-plan.md implementation-plan-*.md 2>/dev/null

# Design system
ls design-system.md 2>/dev/null

# Agent PROJECT.md files
ls .claude/agents/*/PROJECT.md 2>/dev/null

If no files are found, inform the user:

No generated planning files found. Nothing to clear.

Phase 2: Present Files to User

List all found files with sizes:

## Generated Planning Files Found

| File | Size |
|------|------|
| discovery.md | X KB |
| discovery-2.md | X KB |
| implementation-plan.md | X KB |
| design-system.md | X KB |
| .claude/agents/developer/PROJECT.md | X KB |
| .claude/agents/architect/PROJECT.md | X KB |
| .claude/agents/designer/PROJECT.md | X KB |
| .claude/agents/tester/PROJECT.md | X KB |

What would you like to do?
1. **Delete all** - Remove all generated files
2. **Backup then delete** - Copy to `.automatasaurus/backups/` first, then remove
3. **Cancel** - Keep everything

Phase 3: Execute Chosen Action

Option 1: Delete All

rm -f discovery.md discovery-*.md
rm -f implementation-plan.md implementation-plan-*.md
rm -f design-system.md
rm -f .claude/agents/*/PROJECT.md

Option 2: Backup Then Delete

# Create timestamped backup directory
BACKUP_DIR=".automatasaurus/backups/planning-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR"

# Copy all generated files preserving structure
cp discovery.md discovery-*.md "$BACKUP_DIR/" 2>/dev/null
cp implementation-plan.md implementation-plan-*.md "$BACKUP_DIR/" 2>/dev/null
cp design-system.md "$BACKUP_DIR/" 2>/dev/null
mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR/agents"
for agent_dir in .claude/agents/*/; do
  agent_name=$(basename "$agent_dir")
  if [ -f "$agent_dir/PROJECT.md" ]; then
    mkdir -p "$BACKUP_DIR/agents/$agent_name"
    cp "$agent_dir/PROJECT.md" "$BACKUP_DIR/agents/$agent_name/"
  fi
done

# Then delete
rm -f discovery.md discovery-*.md
rm -f implementation-plan.md implementation-plan-*.md
rm -f design-system.md
rm -f .claude/agents/*/PROJECT.md

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

auto-clear is a command published in the GitHub repository shwilliamson/automatasaurus (5 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 841 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
