Use Trash Instead of rm

Files deleted with rm are gone permanently — no undo, no recovery. trash moves them to the macOS Trash instead, where they sit safely until you choose to empty it. This skill sets up that safer default for the session.

Step 1: Check if trash is installed

which trash 2>/dev/null

• Found — confirm it's available and move on.

• Not found — let the user know and offer to install:

  "trash isn't installed. It's a small macOS utility that moves files to the Trash instead of permanently deleting them. Want me to install it with Homebrew?"
