cleanup

cleanup is a skill for Claude Code from brain-bootstrap/claude-code-brain-bootstrap. It costs 37 tokens per session (518 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A workspace cleanup helper for removing selected development files, such as build output, installed dependencies, caches, temporary task files, or unused Docker data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect or clean build artifacts, dependency folders, caches, Docker data, obsolete task files, or to perform a full dependency reinstall.
Why use it?
Generated files and caches can consume disk space or cause confusing stale-state problems. Choosing a cleanup scope helps remove only the category you intend to clear.

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 C, and why

cleanup scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

Recursive force deletehighDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

What it actually says

Cleanup Skill

Clean up workspace artifacts based on the requested scope.

Usage

/cleanup              # Default: show what can be cleaned
/cleanup build        # Remove build artifacts
/cleanup deps         # Remove dependency directories (node_modules, venv, etc.)
/cleanup all          # Full clean: deps + build artifacts
/cleanup cache        # Clear build tool caches
/cleanup docker       # docker system prune -f (no named volumes removed)
/cleanup tasks        # Remove obsolete task files (lessons.md is NEVER deleted)
/cleanup reinstall    # Full reinstall: clean deps → install

Instructions

Determine action from $ARGUMENTS:

Argument Action
build or dist Remove all build artifacts (dist/, build/, .next/, target/)
deps Remove dependency directories (node_modules/, venv/, .venv/, target/)
all Full clean: deps + build artifacts, then reinstall
cache Clear build tool caches (.turbo/, .cache/, __pycache__/, .mypy_cache/)
docker docker system prune -f (does NOT remove named volumes)
tasks Clean obsolete task files (see rules below)
reinstall Full reinstall: clean deps → install

Tasks file cleanup rules:

  • NEVER delete claude/tasks/lessons.md (accumulated wisdom)
  • NEVER delete claude/tasks/CLAUDE_ERRORS.md (bug history)
  • claude/tasks/todo.md can be archived if no active task
  • claude/tasks/mr-description-*.md can be deleted after MR is merged
  • claude/tasks/ticket-*.md can be deleted after ticket is created

Safety rules:

  • NEVER run rm -rf /
  • NEVER delete .env or .env.* files
  • For all: confirm before deleting dependencies if package.json/pyproject.toml shows install script hooks
  • For docker: confirm before running prune in production-adjacent environments

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.
