Drupal Cleanup

List and clean up cloned drupal.org repositories in ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/.

⚠️ Side Effect Warning

Removing a repository permanently deletes the local clone including:

• All branches not pushed to issue forks
• Any uncommitted changes
• Local-only commits

The skill checks for uncommitted changes and unpushed branches before deletion and requires explicit user confirmation. Once deleted, the repository must be re-cloned.

Usage

• "List my cloned drupal.org repos"
• "Remove the paragraphs repository from my local cache"
• "Clean up all drupal contrib repos"
• /drupal-cleanup — List all repos
• /drupal-cleanup list — List with details
• /drupal-cleanup {project} — Remove specific project
• /drupal-cleanup --all — Remove all cloned repos

Environment Detection

Tier 1 — Portable (Claude Desktop, Codex, any environment)

When Bash tools are unavailable:

For listing:

1. Ask user to run: ls -la ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/ and share output
2. Provide analysis and recommendations based on shared output
3. Guide cleanup decisions

For removal (requires Bash in Tier 2):

• Provide the exact commands for user to run manually with explanations

Tier 2 — Claude Code Enhanced

When running in Claude Code with Bash available:

Listing repos:

# Check if cache directory exists
ls -la ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/ 2>/dev/null || echo "No repos cloned yet"

# Get size and details of each project
for dir in ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/*/; do
  project=$(basename "$dir")
  size=$(du -sh "$dir" 2>/dev/null | cut -f1)
  branches=$(cd "$dir" && git branch | wc -l)
  status=$(cd "$dir" && git status --short | wc -l)
  echo "$project | $size | $branches branches | $status modified files"
done

Removing specific project:

1. Check for uncommitted changes: cd ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project} && git status --short
2. Check for unpushed branches: git log --branches --not --remotes --oneline | wc -l
3. Present findings to user
4. ⛔ STOP: Warn about irreversible deletion and require confirmation:

   ⚠️ This will permanently delete ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}/
   
   Status: {uncommitted changes / unpushed commits if any}
   
   Reply "yes" to proceed, "no" to cancel.
   

5. After "yes" confirmation only: rm -rf ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}/

Removing all repos:

1. Show summary: all projects, total size, any with uncommitted work
2. ⛔ STOP: Require explicit confirmation:

   ⚠️ This will permanently delete ALL repos in ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/:
   
   {list of projects with their sizes}
   Total: {X} MB across {N} projects
   
   {Warning if any have uncommitted changes}
   
   Reply "yes, delete all" to proceed, or "no" to cancel.
   

3. After "yes, delete all" confirmation only: rm -rf ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/

| webform | 120 MB | 1 | 1 week ago | Clean |
| easy_lqp | 12 MB | 2 | Today | ⚠️ Modified |

**Total**: 177 MB across 3 projects

**To remove a repo**: Use the drupal-cleanup skill with the project name
**To remove all**: Use the drupal-cleanup skill with --all flag

Safety Checks

Before any deletion, this skill checks:

1. Uncommitted changes — Modified files not yet staged
2. Unstaged files — New files not tracked by git
3. Unpushed branches — Local commits not pushed to issue fork

If any are found, the user is warned before proceeding.

When to Clean Up

Consider cleaning up when:

• An MR has been merged
• You're done contributing to a project
• Disk space is low
• You want a fresh start

Before cleanup, ensure:

• All branches are pushed to issue forks on git.drupalcode.org
• No uncommitted changes exist
• MRs are in stable state

Re-cloning After Cleanup

# Via drupal-mr skill (re-clones automatically):
# "Create MR for {project} issue {number}"

# Or manually:
git clone git@git.drupal.org:project/{project}.git ~/.cache/drupal-contrib/{project}
