Anomaly

[WARNING: unusual ShipIt growth] — total cleared (1,977 MB) is far above the 500 MB daily threshold. Most likely an accumulated backlog from the first real run rather than one day of growth: three actively-updated apps (VS Code at 1.0 GB, Claude Desktop, Notion) each left a full updater payload. Not treated as a problem, but worth watching: if the next 1–2 daily runs return near zero, this was one-time backlog and no change is needed. If VS Code's .ShipIt repeatedly returns at hundreds of MB, a per-app size alert may be warranted.

Run details

• Deletions executed via Desktop Commander (cowork bash sandbox cannot delete under ~/Library/Caches).
• Post-delete scan confirms zero *ShipIt* directories remain at the cache root. Caches regenerate on each app's next update check — safe.
• Codex log: Documents/Codex/system-maintenance/shipit-2026-06-06.md
• Pre-flight: preload spec resolved (primary path), vault present, mount OK, no fallbacks used.
