# Almanac Clean Slate Reset this machine to a first-time Almanac user state, then report exactly what changed. Goal: remove every installed or cached `codealmanac`/Almanac CLI artifact from this laptop without touching unrelated user files, unrelated npm packages, or foreign editor hooks. Work from safest to most direct: 1. Record the starting state: - `command -v almanac alm codealmanac || true` - `npm list -g codealmanac --depth=0 || true` - `find ~/.npm/_npx -path '*/node_modules/codealmanac/package.json' -print 2>/dev/null || true` - Check for `~/.almanac`, `~/.claude/almanac.md`, `~/.claude/almanac-reference.md`, legacy `~/.claude/codealmanac*.md`, `~/.claude/hooks/almanac-capture.sh`, `~/.codex/hooks.json`, and `~/.cursor/hooks.json`. 2. If any Almanac CLI command exists, run the product uninstaller first: - Prefer `almanac uninstall --yes`. - If `almanac` is missing but `codealmanac` exists, run `codealmanac uninstall --yes`. - If both fail, continue with manual cleanup. 3. Remove npm/global installs and caches: - Run `npm uninstall -g codealmanac || true`. - Remove `codealmanac` package directories under all local nvm global roots if they still exist. - Remove global bin shims named `almanac`, `alm`, and `codealmanac` only when they point at a `codealmanac` install. - Remove each `~/.npm/_npx/<hash>` directory whose `node_modules/codealmanac/package.json` exists. 4. Remove Almanac home/config artifacts: - Remove `~/.almanac`. - Remove `~/.claude/almanac.md`, `~/.claude/almanac-reference.md`, `~/.claude/codealmanac.md`, and `~/.claude/codealmanac-reference.md`. - Remove `~/.claude/hooks/almanac-capture.sh` if it exists. 5. Clean editor hook settings safely: - In `~/.claude/settings.json`, remove only hook commands whose command path ends with `almanac-capture.sh`; preserve every foreign hook. - In `~/.codex/hooks.json`, remove only hook commands whose command path ends with `almanac-capture.sh`; preserve every foreign hook. - In `~/.cursor/hooks.json`, remove only hook commands whose command path ends with `almanac-capture.sh`; preserve every foreign hook. - If a hook container becomes empty after removing Almanac's command, remove that empty container/key. 6. Clean Claude imports safely: - In `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md`, remove lines that are exactly `@~/.claude/almanac.md` or `@~/.claude/codealmanac.md`, plus those same lines followed by spaces/tabs and annotations. - Preserve lines that merely mention those paths inside other prose. - If `CLAUDE.md` becomes empty after removing Almanac imports, remove it. 7. Verify the clean slate: - `hash -r || true` - `command -v almanac alm codealmanac || true` - `npm list -g codealmanac --depth=0 || true` - `find ~/.npm/_npx -path '*/node_modules/codealmanac/package.json' -print 2>/dev/null || true` - Check that `~/.almanac`, guide files, and `almanac-capture.sh` are gone. - Check that no hook command ending in `almanac-capture.sh` remains in Claude, Codex, or Cursor hook settings. Output: - Show the exact commands/actions you ran in order. - Mark each as `removed`, `already absent`, or `skipped` with the reason. - End with the remaining `command -v` and npm/global/npx verification output.
