SKILL-004: Clean Build Artifacts

Overview

Build artifacts can accumulate and cause subtle build errors or disk bloat. This skill "deep cleans" a workspace by removing generated folders that match standard patterns.

Trigger Phrases

• clean artifacts
• clean build
• wipe bin obj
• reset workspace

Inputs

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
--target	string[]	No	bin,obj,node_modules	Folders to remove
--dry-run	switch	No	False	List what would be deleted

Outputs

1. Console log of deleted paths.
2. Space reclaimed summary.

Safety/QA Checks

1. Git Check: Uses git clean -fdX if possible (safest).
2. Explicit List: If not git, only deletes explicit target list (bin, obj).
3. No Source Code: Never deletes .cs, .py, etc.

Implementation

See clean_artifacts.ps1.
