| description | Automatically clean disk space by removing temp files, browser cache, recycle bin/trash, and log files — safely, without deleting any important files. Use this skill whenever the user asks to clean their disk, free up space, remove junk files, clear cache, empty trash, or says things like "disk full", "storage is low", "computer is slow", "clean my disk", "remove junk files", or wants to speed up their system. Works on Windows, Linux, and Mac. Always ask user whether to run automatically or with confirmation. |
Auto Cleaning Disk
Safely clean disk space on any operating system (Windows, Linux, macOS).
Never deletes important files — only junk, cache, temp, and log files.
What This Skill Cleans
| Category | Examples |
|---|
| Temp Files | %TEMP%, /tmp, system temp folders |
| Browser Cache | Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari cache |
| Recycle Bin / Trash | Windows Recycle Bin, macOS Trash, Linux Trash |
| Log Files | Old .log files in system/app folders |
⚠️ NEVER delete: Documents, Downloads, Desktop files, user data, system files,
installed apps, or anything outside designated junk folders.
Mode Selection
Always ask the user FIRST (if not already specified):
- Auto Mode — Clean everything silently, show summary at end
- Confirm Mode — Ask user before each category is cleaned
Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 3: Show Results
After cleaning, always show:
- ✅ How much space was freed (MB/GB)
- 📁 Which categories were cleaned
- ⚠️ Anything skipped and why
Safety Rules (MUST FOLLOW)
- ❌ Never touch System32 or Windows folder
- ❌ Never touch Documents, Pictures, Videos, Downloads
