Use to audit and clean the debris a long-running jig repository accumulates: task branches whose work already shipped, branches from retired flows, stale remote-tracking refs, tag and release mismatches, an uncommitted rubric, and installer .bak leftovers. Reports first; deletes only what the user confirms.
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
# Repo Hygiene Use this repository skill to find and clear the debris that builds up in a repository worked through jig. It audits first and always reports; it removes only what the user names. This is the repository's own housekeeping. For the state of the jig **installation**, use `jig-doctor`, which is read-only and never deletes. ## Why Merged Branches Look Unmerged `develop-task-flow` finishes with `git merge --squash`, so the task branch tip never becomes an ancestor of `develop`. Git therefore reports every finished branch as unmerged: ```bash git branch --merged develop # finds almost nothing git branch --no-merged develop # lists work that shipped months ago ``` **Never decide a branch is safe to delete with `--merged`.** Under a squash flow it answers a different question than the one being asked. A plain diff does not answer it either, in either spelling: | Command | What it compares | Why it misjudges | |---|---|---| | `git diff develop...<branch>` | merge base against the branch | still shows the branch's own contribution after a squash merge, so finished work reads as unfinished | …

How to install
mdr add 0x0w1/jig/jig-repo-hygiene@sha256:95d0f559810938aeThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260914.f91d23d, 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.
