90
91 1. `ignore.devprune.json` in the root, or `\"ignore\": true` — skipped instantly.
92 2. Idle check: last commit and newest source mtime, against `idle_days` (15 by
93 default). `--ignore-idle` lifts this one check and nothing else.
94 3. Project discovery: the root and up to `scan_depth` levels below it (6 by
95 default), so a monorepo's every package is found.
96 4. The package manager's own binary must be present — a directory whose manager
97 is missing cannot be verified, so it is not touched.
98 5. Lockfile verification: the manager itself confirms the lockfile can rebuild
99 the directory. No flag bypasses this, and none ever will.

101 refusal.

474Install whatever integration is missing and leave the rest alone: the `devp` alias, \
475the managed binary directory on your PATH (a user PATH entry on Windows, \
476`~/.local/bin` symlinks elsewhere — what keeps `devp` working after the venv or npx \
477cache it came from disappears), the exported SKILL.md and its agent-directory \
478install, the file-manager icon registration, the global Git hooks, and the OS \
479scheduler. Safe to run repeatedly: it is the same pass the install scripts run, the \
480same one `devp init` runs, and the same one that runs by itself on the first command \
481after an upgrade.

483It skips rather than forces: Git hooks when `git` is missing or another tool holds \
484`core.hooksPath` (take the slot with `devp hook install --chain`), the alias when \
485the running process is `devp` itself on Windows, and anything switched off by \
486`auto_setup`, `auto_hooks`, `auto_daemon` or `DEV_PRUNE_NO_AUTO_SETUP=1`.

488When a VS Code-family editor is on your PATH (VS Code, VSCodium, Cursor, Windsurf, \
489Positron, Kiro, or an Insiders build) and the dev-prune extension is not installed, \
490one run also asks — once ever, only at a terminal — whether to install it into each \
491editor found. Each editor installs from its own registry; when a fork's registry does \
492not carry the extension, the `.vsix` from the latest GitHub release is installed \
493instead. Decline and it never asks again; install it yourself later with \
494`code --install-extension VKrishna04.dev-prune`.";

504One read-only pass that answers \"why is this not doing what I expect\". Without a \
505path it checks the installation: binary and twin, PATH, registry health, every \
506stored setting revalidated, SKILL.md, icons, hooks, scheduler, the package-manager \
507binaries your repositories actually need, and the release-check state. With a path \
508it checks that repository and ends by naming the single reason a prune would or \
509would not touch it.
510
511`--fix` is diagnosis first, then treatment — and it mends installed-but-broken only: \
512a stale or missing `devp` twin, a missing SKILL.md export, hooks or a scheduler \
513whose recorded binary moved, a drifted hook chain, and registry entries whose \
514repository is gone. Each repair is the corresponding `devp setup` pass re-run, so a \
515repair can never do more than setup itself would. It never performs a first-time \
516install, and never touches an unreadable registry — a parse failure is for you to \
517look at, not for a tool to guess at.
