repoclean-cli 0.8.0

Repo hygiene scanner and fixer (junk files, secrets, gitignore).

Repoclean (CLI) v0.8.0

repoclean — GitHub Repo Cleanup & Secret Leak Prevention CLI

A fast repo hygiene scanner + scary-good secrets detector + pre-commit hook that blocks risky commits automatically.

Why repoclean exists

Most repo leaks don’t happen because people are careless — they happen because shipping is fast and repo hygiene is manual.

repoclean stops:

• accidental API key/token leaks
• pushing .env, .pem, id_rsa etc
• committing junk (__pycache__/, .log, .tmp, dist/, etc)
• committing huge files that bloat history

repoclean is a small CLI tool meant to be run before pushing to GitHub. It helps you quickly:

• spot repo hygiene issues
• detect secret/token patterns
• block accidental leaks via an optional Git pre-commit hook

Demo

- Slack tokens (`xoxb-...`)
- Stripe live keys (`sk_live_...`)
- Telegram bot tokens (`123456:ABC...`)

- High entropy secret candidates in assignment contexts
