envoic - Environment Scanner and Cleanup Skill

Use envoic to discover and safely clean Python virtual environments, node_modules, and development artifacts.

Quick Start

CODEBLOCK0

If uvx is unavailable, install Python package with pip install envoic.
If npx is unavailable, install JS package with npm install -g envoic.

Primary Workflows

1) Onboarding Health Check

1. 1. Run uvx envoic info .venv (or npx envoic info node_modules).
2. If environment is broken or stale, propose delete-and-recreate steps.

2) Disk Space Recovery

1. 1. Run uvx envoic scan <root> --deep and/or npx envoic scan <root> --deep.
2. Identify largest stale candidates.
3. Run manage --dry-run, then actual cleanup only after confirmation.

3) Build/Test Artifact Cleanup

1. 1. Scan project root.
2. Prefer deleting SAFE artifacts first.
3. Warn for CAREFUL artifacts.

Safety Contract

1. 1. Always scan before delete.
2. Prefer --dry-run before destructive operations.
3. Never delete lock files or project manifest files.
4. Require explicit user confirmation for non-dry-run cleanup.
