README (SKILL.md)

Git Branch Pruner

Overview

Safely identifies and removes merged, stale, and orphaned Git branches.

When to Use

User asks to "clean up branches" or "delete merged branches"
Branch list is too long to manage

How It Works

Step 1: Identify main branch

git branch --show-current git remote show origin | findstr "HEAD branch"

Step 2: List all branches

git branch -a --format "%(refname:short) %(upstream:short) %(committerdate:short)"

Step 3: Categorize

Merged: already in main/master Stale: no commit in 90+ days Orphaned: no upstream tracking Active: recent commits under 30 days

Step 4: Safe deletion

Always show user what will be deleted first
Exclude protected branches: main, master, develop, release/*
Exclude branches with unpushed commits
Ask for confirmation before deletion

Output Format

Merged branches (safe to delete): feature-old-login -> DELETE bugfix-typo-2024 -> DELETE

Protected (do not delete): main \x3C- current develop

Commands: git branch -d (safe) or git branch -D (force) Remote: git push origin --delete branch-name

Usage Guidance

This skill appears safe to install as an instruction-only Git cleanup helper. Before using it, make sure you are in the intended repository, inspect the list of branches it proposes to delete, and be especially cautious with force deletion or deleting branches from the remote origin.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: skylv-repo-cleaner Version: 1.0.0 The skill is a standard Git utility designed to identify and remove merged or stale branches. The instructions in SKILL.md emphasize safety by explicitly requiring user confirmation, protecting core branches (main, master, develop), and checking for unpushed commits before deletion. No evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or prompt injection was found.

Capability Assessment

ℹ Purpose & Capability

The skill is coherent with its stated Git branch cleanup purpose, but it can delete local and remote Git branches, including a documented force-delete option.

✓ Instruction Scope

The instructions include safety boundaries: show what will be deleted first, exclude protected branches, exclude branches with unpushed commits, and ask for confirmation.

✓ Install Mechanism

This is instruction-only with no install spec, no code files, no package dependencies, and no static scan findings.

ℹ Credentials

The Git commands act on the user's current repository and may affect the remote origin; this is proportionate to branch pruning but can impact shared repositories.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

No background execution, persistence, credential collection, stored memory, or privilege-escalation behavior is described.

How to Use

Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
Run the install command in chat: /install skylv-repo-cleaner
After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /skylv-repo-cleaner
Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
