Safely clean regenerable clutter from a project folder by scanning for build artifacts and caches, backing up every removed path into a timestamped archive with a BACKUP.md manifest, zipping the backup to save space, and only deleting originals after explicit confirmation. Use when the user asks to clean a project directory, remove node_modules, clear build output, reclaim disk space, or tidy a repo before archiving.
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
# Project Folder Cleanup Remove regenerable clutter from a project folder without losing data. Every targeted path is copied into a backup first, documented in `BACKUP.md`, compressed into a zip archive, and only then removed from the project when explicitly confirmed. ## When to Use - Clean `node_modules`, build folders, caches, or logs from a project - Reclaim disk space before archiving or zipping a repo - Reset a project to a fresh-build state - Tidy a workspace after switching branches or experiments Do **not** use it for general file organization across the whole computer — that's out of scope for this skill. ## Core Rules 1. **Backup before delete** — no exceptions 2. **Scan and confirm** — show paths and sizes; get approval before destructive steps 3. **Dry-run first** — always run with `--dry-run` until the plan is approved 4. **Zip the backup** — keep disk use small; retain the `.zip`, drop uncompressed folder by default 5. **Document everything** — `BACKUP.md` inside the backup explains what, why, and how to restore Read [Safety Rules](references/safety-rules.md) before every run. ## Workflow ### Step 1: Choose the project …

How to install
mdr add aka-kika/akakika-skills/project-folder-cleanup@sha256:b7dd75ff4952b2efThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
