Can this skill help with large machine learning models?

Yes, it specifically identifies and provides commands to clean up Hugging Face and PyTorch model caches, which are often the primary cause of sudden disk exhaustion.

Is it safe to delete the files suggested by this skill?

Yes. The skill follows a strict safety hierarchy, prioritizing temporary caches and build artifacts that can be regenerated. It includes specific warnings to never delete user documents or source code without explicit confirmation.

Why isn't my disk space increasing after deleting Docker images?

On macOS (using Colima or Docker Desktop), virtual disks often don't shrink automatically. This skill provides the 'fstrim' command to force the VM to release that space back to your physical drive.

Which package managers does this skill support?

The skill includes specialized cleanup routines for npm, Yarn, Rust (Cargo), and Python (uv), as well as general application caches in ~/.cache and ~/Library/Caches.

Herramientas para Desarrolladores

Analyzes and cleans up large files, system caches, and Docker storage to reclaim disk space on macOS and Linux systems.

The Disk Cleanup skill is a comprehensive diagnostic and maintenance toolkit designed to help developers manage storage-intensive environments. It specializes in identifying large directories and safely removing non-essential data such as application caches, Docker build artifacts, and development build folders (node_modules, target, etc.). By providing specific workflows for complex storage issues—like reclaiming space from Docker/Colima virtual disks using fstrim—it ensures users can resolve 'disk full' errors efficiently without risking critical project data.
