🤖 fsgc — Filesystem Garbage Collector

🚀 Getting Started

The fsgc tool is built with modern Python tooling (uv).

Installation

For users (recommended):

uvx fsgc

Or via pipx:

pipx install fsgc

For developers:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/apiad/fsgc.git
cd fsgc

# Install dependencies and build the project
uv sync

Usage

By default, running fsgc will perform a stochastic MCTS-informed scan of the current directory:

fsgc scan .

Options:

• --workers / -w: Number of concurrent workers (default: 8).
• --depth / -d: Maximum display depth (default: 2).
• --min-percent / -p: Minimum size percentage of parent to show child (default: 0.01).
• --limit / -l: Maximum number of children to list individually (default: 10).
• --age / -a: Age threshold in days for recency heuristic (default: 90).
• --dry-run: Show what would be collected without deleting.

🧠 The Core Philosophy

fsgc is "The Architect in the Machine." It uses a Stochastic Search architecture to turn raw metadata into actionable deletion proposals:

1. Scanner (The Playout): Informed MCTS scanning using GCTrail history and known signatures.
2. Heuristic Engine (The Mark Phase): Scores nodes based on patterns, recency, and sentinel verification (e.g., verifying package.json for node_modules).
3. Aggregator (The Sweep Phase): Groups garbage into logical collections for interactive selection.

🛠️ Development Lifecycle

The project is managed using a highly customized Gemini CLI agent framework. For more information on the framework and available commands, refer to GEMINI.md.

Standard Targets:

• make lint: Run Ruff checks.
• make format: Apply code formatting.
• make test: Execute the test suite.
• make check: Run Mypy static analysis.
• make all: Run all checks and tests.

⚓ The Hook System

The framework uses a robust hook system (.gemini/hooks/) that synchronizes the agent with your project state, ensuring continuous validation and journaling.
