A cleanup skill for finding project-tree debris caused by automation writing files into the wrong repository location.

Housekeeping repository trees, sweeping stray transition directories, and auditing for misplaced .workspace or .claude directories.

It helps locate misplaced workspace or Claude directories and stray transition folders that can clutter or confuse agent infrastructure.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00107	$0.01438
Opus 5.5	$0.00043	$0.00575
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00021	$0.00288
Haiku 4.5	$0.00011	$0.00144

Security

Grade B, and why

housekeep scanned grade B 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scan.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 deletemediumDestructive command

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

- `--execute` without `--auto`: present the proposed `rm -rf` list explicitly and ask

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

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.
