v0.6.0

What's Changed

• Remove programmatic API (src/index.ts, CJS/ESM library exports, type declarations). CLI-only distribution.
• Drop main, module, types, and exports fields from package.json. Build produces only dist/cli.js.
• Fix Windows command execution: replace resolveExecutable wrapper with shell: true on Win32 in runCommand and installUpdate.
• Fix installUpdate to pass shell: process.platform === "win32" to spawn instead of resolving npm.cmd manually.
• Export installUpdate from public API (was missing).
• Restrict CI workflow triggers to main branch for both push and pull_request events.
• Expand test coverage for cleanup, detection, and safety-matrix edge cases.
• Add sweep <dir> command: walk a directory tree, find all project roots, detect caches per project, display a sorted table with project, cache path, size, and age. Supports --days/--min-age to filter by cache age, --dry-run, --json, and interactive multi-select cleanup.
• Add reclaim <size> command: parse a human-readable size target (e.g. 5gb, 500mb), auto-select the safest candidates (safe → oldest → largest) until the target is met, display a plan, and confirm before deleting. Supports --dry-run, --yes, and --json.
• Add runtime active-process protection: automatically scan running dev servers (next dev, vite, turbo, jest --watch, vitest, playwright, cypress); skip active caches with PID indicator unless --force is used.
• Add orphaned command and --orphaned flag: detect caches whose tools, dependencies, or configuration files no longer exist in the project; preview with --dry-run or clear interactively.
• Add Docker build cache support (nkc list --docker, nkc clean --docker): inspect build cache size with docker system df and prune safely with docker builder prune.

v0.5.0

What's Changed

• Support configuration aliases (nkc.config.json, ncache.config.json) alongside nukecache.config.json.
• Add JSON Schema hosted at https://nukecache.js.org/schema.json with strict validation.
• Detect multiple config file collisions, providing interactive deletion options to avoid ambiguous behavior.
• Expand project configuration with defaultScope, dryRun, safe, force, json, packageManagers, days, limit, and noUpdateCheck options.
• Add --check-update CLI option and check-update command with 60s cooldown rate limiting.
• Add rich project overview header (formatProjectSummary) before interactive cache selection.
• Add cache safety hints directly in interactive multiselect options.
• Standardize friendly exit thanks message on all successful commands, cancellations, and errors.
• Shorten update check interval to 6 hours for faster release discovery.

v0.3.0

What's Changed

• Add automatic update checks with cached registry results, interactive update choices, release ignoring, and automation opt-outs.
• Add largest, old, and explain inspection commands with JSON output and cache timestamps.
• Make cache scans faster with bounded concurrent filesystem traversal, batched Git checks, and lower-overhead root detection.
• Fix Bun cache detection and cleanup outside package directories, including home-directory scans.
• Keep package-manager caches global under home-like roots and remove project-local Yarn caches through guarded filesystem cleanup.
• Add 250+ unit, integration, security, compatibility, argument, output, and semantic-version tests.

v0.2.0

What's Changed

• Add explicit global cache inspection and native cleanup for npm, pnpm, Yarn, and Bun.
• Detect package managers from manifest metadata and lockfiles, with manager-specific commands and non-fatal detection warnings.
• Add Nx, Parcel, Angular CLI, Jest, Vitest, Playwright, Cypress, Babel, SWC, and Yarn project-cache detection.
• Separate project and global output, protect global cleanup behind explicit flags and confirmation, and report actual post-cleanup bytes freed.
• Harden cleanup against Git inspection failures, concurrent cache changes, environment files, additional lockfiles, and database files.

What's Changed

• Add custom project configuration and public programmatic API.
• Add CI-gated GitHub releases with compact changelog notes.
