Workflow Clean Command

Overview

Evidence-based intelligent cleanup command. Systematically identifies stale artifacts through mainline analysis, discovers drift, and safely removes unused sessions, documents, and dead code.

Core workflow: Detect Mainline → Discover Drift → Confirm → Stage → Execute

Target Cleanup

Focus area: $FOCUS (or entire project if not specified) Mode: $ARGUMENTS

• --dry-run: Preview cleanup without executing
• --focus: Focus area (module or path)

Execution Process

Phase 0: Initialization
   ├─ Parse arguments (--dry-run, FOCUS)
   ├─ Setup session folder
   └─ Initialize utility functions

Phase 1: Mainline Detection
   ├─ Analyze git history (30 days)
   ├─ Identify core modules (high commit frequency)
   ├─ Map active vs stale branches
   └─ Build mainline profile

Phase 2: Drift Discovery (Subagent)
   ├─ spawn_agent with cli-explore-agent role
   ├─ Scan workflow sessions for orphaned artifacts
   ├─ Identify documents drifted from mainline
   ├─ Detect dead code and unused exports
   └─ Generate cleanup manifest

Phase 3: Confirmation
   ├─ Validate manifest schema
   ├─ Display cleanup summary by category
   ├─ request_user_input: Select categories and risk level
   └─ Dry-run exit if --dry-run

Phase 4: Execution
   ├─ Validate paths (security check)
   ├─ Stage deletion (move to .trash)
   ├─ Update manifests
   ├─ Permanent deletion
   └─ Report results

Implementation

Phase 0: Initialization

##### Step 0: Determine Project Root

检测项目根目录，确保 .workflow/ 产物位置正确：

bash
PROJECT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd)

优先通过 git 获取仓库根目录；非 git 项目回退到 pwd 取当前绝对路径。 存储为 {projectRoot}，后续所有 .workflow/ 路径必须以此为前缀。

javascript
const getUtc8ISOString = () => new Date(Date.now() + 8 * 60 * 60 * 1000).toISOString()

// Parse arguments
const args = "$ARGUMENTS"
const isDryRun = args.includes('--dry-run')
const focusMatch = args.match(/FOCUS="([^"]+)"/)
const focusArea = focusMatch ? focusMatch[1] : "$FOCUS" !== "$" + "FOCUS" ? "$FOCUS" : null

// Session setup
const dateStr = getUtc8ISOString().substring(0, 10)
const sessionId = `clean-${dateStr}`
const sessionFolder = `${projectRoot}/.workflow/.clean/${sessionId}`
const trashFolder = `${sessionFolder}/.trash`
const projectRoot = bash('git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || pwd').trim()

bash(`mkdir -p ${sessionFolder}`)
bash(`mkdir -p ${trashFolder}`)

// Utility functions
function fileExists(p) {
  try { return bash(`test -f "${p}" && echo "yes"`).includes('yes') } catch { return false }
}

function dirExists(p) {
  try { return bash(`test -d "${p}" && echo "yes"`).includes('yes') } catch { return false }
}

function validatePath(targetPath) {
  if (targetPath.includes('..')) return { valid: false, reason: 'Path traversal' }

  const allowed = ['.workflow/', '.claude/rules/tech/', 'src/']
  const dangerous = [/^\//, /^C:\\Windows/i, /node_modules/, /\.git$/]

  if (!allowed.some(p => targetPath.startsWith(p))) {
    return { valid: false, reason: 'Outside allowed directories' }
  }
  if (dangerous.some(p => p.test(targetPath))) {
    return { valid: false, reason: 'Dangerous pattern' }
  }
  return { valid: true }
}

Phase 1: Mainline Detection

javascript
// Check git repository
const isGitRepo = bash('git rev-parse --git-dir 2>/dev/null && echo "yes"').includes('yes')

let mainlineProfile = {
  coreModules: [],
  activeFiles: [],
  activeBranches: [],
  staleThreshold: { sessions: 7, branches: 30, documents: 14 },
  isGitRepo,
  timestamp: getUtc8ISOString()
}

if (isGitRepo) {
  // Commit frequency by directory (last 30 days)
  const freq = bash('git log --since="30 days ago" --name-only --pretty=format: | grep -v "^$" | cut -d/ -f1-2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -20')

  // Parse core modules (>5 commits)
  mainlineProfile.coreModules = freq.trim().split('\n')
    .map(l => l.trim().match(/^(\d+)\s+(.+)$/))
    .filter(m => m && parseInt(m[1]) >= 5)
    .map(m => m[2])

  // Recent branches
  const branches = bash('git for-each-ref --sort=-committerdate refs/heads/ --format="%(refname:short)" | head -10')
  mainlineProfile.activeBranches = branches.trim().split('\n').filter(Boolean)
}

Write(`${sessionFolder}/mainline-profile.json`, JSON.stringify(mainlineProfile, null, 2))

Phase 2: Drift Discovery

javascript
let exploreAgent = null

try {
  // Launch cli-explore-agent
  exploreAgent = spawn_agent({
    agent_type: "cli_explore_agent",
    message: `
## TASK ASSIGNMENT

### MANDATORY FIRST STEPS
1. Read: ${projectRoot}/.workflow/project-tech.json (if exists)

## Task Objective
Discover stale artifacts for cleanup.

## Context
- Session: ${sessionFolder}
- Focus: ${focusArea || 'entire project'}

## Discovery Categories

### 1. Stale Workflow Sessions
Scan: ${projectRoot}/.workflow/active/WFS-*, ${projectRoot}/.workflow/archives/WFS-*, ${projectRoot}/.workflow/.lite-plan/*, ${projectRoot}/.workflow/.debug/DBG-*
Criteria: No modification >7 days + no related git commits

### 2. Drifted Documents
Scan: .claude/rules/tech/*, ${projectRoot}/.workflow/.scratchpad/*
Criteria: >30% broken references to non-existent files

### 3. Dead Code
Scan: Unused exports, orphan files (not imported anywhere)
Criteria: No importers in import graph

## Output
Write to: ${sessionFolder}/cleanup-manifest.json

Format:
{
  "generated_at": "ISO",
  "discoveries": {
    "stale_sessions": [{ "path": "...", "age_days": N, "reason": "...", "risk": "low|medium|high" }],
    "drifted_documents": [{ "path": "...", "drift_percentage": N, "reason": "...", "risk": "..." }],
    "dead_code": [{ "path": "...", "type": "orphan_file", "reason": "...", "risk": "..." }]
  },
  "summary": { "total_items": N, "by_category": {...}, "by_risk": {...} }
}
`
  })

  // Wait with timeout handling (4-step cascade)
  let result = wait_agent({ timeout_ms: 1800000 })

  if (result.timed_out) {
    // Status probe
    followup_task({ target: exploreAgent, message: "STATUS_CHECK: Report current progress, findings so far, and estimated remaining work." })
    const status = wait_agent({ timeout_ms: 180000 })  // 3 min
    if (status.timed_out) {
      // Force finalize
      followup_task({ target: exploreAgent, message: "FINALIZE: Output all current findings immediately. Time limit reached.", interrupt: true })
      const forced = wait_agent({ timeout_ms: 180000 })  // 3 min
      if (forced.timed_out) {
        close_agent({ target: exploreAgent })
        throw new Error('Agent timeout')
      }
    }
  }

  if (!fileExists(`${sessionFolder}/cleanup-manifest.json`)) {
    throw new Error('Manifest not generated')
  }

Phase 3: Confirmation

Risk Levels

| Risk | Description | Examples | |------|-------------|----------| | Low | Safe to delete | Empty sessions, scratchpad files | | Medium | Likely unused | Orphan files, old archives | | High | May have dependencies | Files with some imports |

Security Features

| Feature | Protection | |---------|------------| | Path Validation | Whitelist directories, reject traversal | | Staged Deletion | Move to .trash before permanent delete | | Dangerous Patterns | Block system dirs, node_modules, .git |

Iteration Flow

First Call (/prompts:clean):
   ├─ Detect mainline from git history
   ├─ Discover stale artifacts via subagent
   ├─ Display summary, await user selection
   └─ Execute cleanup with staging

Dry-Run (/prompts:clean --dry-run):
   ├─ All phases except execution
   └─ Manifest saved for review

Focused (/prompts:clean FOCUS="auth"):
   └─ Discovery limited to specified area

Error Handling

| Situation | Action | |-----------|--------| | No git repo | Use file timestamps only | | Agent timeout | Retry once with prompt, then abort | | Path validation fail | Skip item, report reason | | Manifest parse error | Abort with error | | Empty discovery | Report "codebase is clean" |

Now execute cleanup workflow with focus: $FOCUS
