github-nuke-cache

This is a CLI tool for bulk deleting GitHub Actions caches.

Usage

You can set the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable or pass a --pat TOKEN_HERE argument to the CLI to authenticate your API calls.

# Delete all caches
github-nuke-cache --repo org/repo-name

# Delete caches with a specific prefix
github-nuke-cache --repo org/repo-name --prefix Linux-npm-

Why did you make this?

The GitHub runners were upgraded and a compiled dependency in our cache no longer worked. I needed to clear out all caches with a specific prefix across all branches.
