Audit and reclaim disk space cautiously on a development Mac, especially when storage is nearly full, caches and build artifacts have accumulated, or a Git repository has many temporary worktrees. Use for disk-usage investigation, cleanup planning, cache pruning, and explicitly requested deletion. Separates reproducible data from user state, verifies Git worktrees are registered, clean, and merged, and reports exact targets, recovery risk, and measured space before and after.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Reclaim disk space

Treat size as a discovery signal, never as deletion authority. Prefer a smaller
verified cleanup over a broad deletion with ambiguous ownership.

## Establish authority

Classify the request before mutating anything:

- For "inspect," "audit," "what can I delete," or equivalent, perform
  read-only discovery and return a ranked plan.
- For an explicit request to delete a named category, treat that category as
  approved. Re-resolve its exact targets immediately before deletion.
- Stop for a new choice when cleanup would include personal files, application
  state, credentials, active sessions, database volumes, dirty Git state, or
  anything outside the approved category.

Never expand "delete caches" into repositories, application support, or user
history. Never expand "delete worktrees" into branches.

## Audit in phases

1. Record `df -h .`.
2. Inspect likely roots with bounded `du` calls. Use `du -x -d 1 <root>` on
   macOS; remember its default units are 512-byte blocks. Use `du -sk <path>`
   when reporting KiB/GiB.
3. Drill into only the largest relevant roots. Do not launch overlapping
   whole-home scans that repeatedly traverse the same files.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hraness/personal-monorepo-template/reclaim-disk-space@sha256:b591b4c7a57e7c0a

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260813.2328887, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
