housekeeping
Skill0 starsChanged 3 months agoNo licenceView on GitHub
Clean a git repo of what nobody is using — local branches whose PR landed, worktrees provably on `main`, dead remote-tracking refs and worktree registrations — and report the rest with the fact that keeps it. Use when the user says "clean the repo", "housekeeping", "prune branches", "delete stale branches", "remove old worktrees", "which worktrees are still in use", "tidy the branches", "gc the repo". Every deletion cites an observed fact — PR state, ancestry of `origin/main`, a clean tree, no process inside — never age, name or ordering. `git branch --merged` is never consulted. Remote branches and stashes only on an explicit yes; an open PR, never.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
4 rules. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 10 edited versions we read keep these.
2
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
No licence file, so all rights are reserved — read it at the source. We count its rules but don't quote them. Read them on GitHub.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 10 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
