Repository Cleanup

Goal

Inspect local and remote branches, pull requests, commits, stashes, worktrees, and the local databases left behind by old worktrees. Recover valuable work, then remove the proven stale state the user selects, until the repository is current and organized. Nothing is removed that the user did not select by name.

Loop Prompt

Inspect local and remote branches, pull requests, commits, stashes, and worktrees. Recover valuable work, list everything stale, and remove only the items the user selects, until the repository is current and organized.

Stop when valuable work is recovered and remaining repository state is intentional.

When To Use

Use this when abandoned branches, old worktrees, unclear pull requests, unmerged commits, or forgotten stashes make it difficult to know which repository state still matters.

This loop cleans Git repository state. It is not a source-code housekeeping pass; use housekeeper for dead code, stale files, duplicated logic, broken links, unused dependencies, and project-structure cleanup.
