cleanup-worktrees

cleanup-worktrees is a plugin for Claude Code from paulbaranowski/wild-horses. Its manifest loads nothing; the 1 skill, 1 hook it bundles cost 104 tokens per session together, scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for finding and removing stale Git worktrees, which are extra working copies of a repository. It identifies worktrees that are safe to clean and leaves dirty, locked, or unpushed ones alone.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan configured repositories, review cleanable worktrees grouped by reason and size, and remove selected ones safely.
Why use it?
It helps recover disk space without accidentally deleting work that has not been saved or shared. It also checks each worktree again before removal.

Security

Grade A, and why

cleanup-worktrees 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 5d 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.

What it actually says

{
  "name": "cleanup-worktrees",
  "description": "Reclaim disk space from stale git worktrees. Scans configured roots (direct repos and parent dirs), classifies each worktree as cleanable (merged PR, upstream gone, merged into the default branch, or stale) or skipped (dirty, locked, unpushed), shows the cleanable set grouped by reason with sizes, and removes the ones you pick — re-validating before each removal, never --force, pruning the orphaned branch. Backed by a bundled cleanup_worktrees_cli.py with atomic config writes and JSON-on-stdout, plus a PreToolUse hook that auto-approves the CLI.",

What it installs

The manifest is a name and a version. 1 skill, 1 hook travel with it, and installing the plugin installs all of them — 104 tokens a session between them. Each is measured on its own page, and each can be installed alone.

Changes

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.
