Cleaning up historical data
Over time, archived agents and their output directories accumulate.
This skill describes how to clean them up.
Destroying old archived agents
Find agents that were archived more than a week ago and destroy them:
mngr list --include "has(labels.archived_at)" --exclude "id == \"$AGENT_ID\"" --format jsonl
For each agent in the list, check the archived_at label.
If it is more than a week old, destroy the agent:
mngr destroy -f <agent-id>
Cleaning up output directories
When destroying an agent, also remove its output directory:
rm -rf output/<agent-id>
Before removing, check if the output directory contains anything that should be preserved (e.g., reports, data files, or artifacts that haven't been moved to a permanent location).
If in doubt, leave it -- it's better to have stale data than to lose something important.
