What

Claude Code periodically deletes old files from folders inside its configuration directory. That cleanup now covers these folders:

  • todos
  • statsig
  • logs
  • access-audit (newly included)

Before deleting anything, it now checks that each folder is a real folder and not a symbolic link (a shortcut pointing somewhere else), and skips it if not. It also stops if the folder is replaced by a different one while files are being deleted.

Why

Access-audit logs no longer pile up forever. The extra checks close a gap where swapping a folder for a link at the wrong moment could have made the cleanup delete files outside the configuration directory.
