Remove old cached plugin versions from ~/.claude/plugins/cache/. Claude Code
keeps every version it has ever downloaded — this skill prunes all but the
latest version of each plugin.
Scan (dry-run): Always run the script in dry-run mode first:
node "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../scripts/cleanup.js" --dry-runReport: Show the user the output — which old versions would be removed and how much space would be freed. If no old versions are found, tell the user the cache is already clean and stop.
Confirm: Use the AskUserQuestion tool with a yes/no question to ask
the user if they want to proceed with deletion. Do NOT delete without
explicit confirmation via this tool.
Delete: Only after the user confirms, run:
node "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../scripts/cleanup.js" --deleteReport results: Show the user what was deleted and total space freed.
