What it does

Downloads Triage is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Empty the Downloads folder that's become a junk drawer — the four-bucket pass (file, delete, action, quarantine), the age-based bulk rules that make 2,000 items tractable, and the tiny habit that keeps it empty. Use when asked clean up my downloads folder, 2000 files in downloads help, what's safe to delete here, or stop my downloads from piling up. Produces the bucket pass with bulk rules, the safe-delete classes, the keeper-filing routes, and the weekly sweep habit.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering File organization. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked clean up my downloads folder
  • 2000 files in downloads help
  • Whats safe to delete here
  • Stop my downloads from piling up

Example prompts

  • “/downloads-triage”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Downloads Triage loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 122 tokens; SKILL.md has 604 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~122
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Empty the Downloads folder that's become a junk drawer — the four-bucket pass (file, delete, action, quarantine), the age-based bulk rules that make 2,000 items tractable, and the tiny habit that keeps it empty. Use when asked clean up my downloads folder, 2000 files in downloads help, what's safe to delete here, or stop my downloads from piling up. Produces the bucket pass with bulk rules, the safe-delete classes, the keeper-filing routes, and the weekly sweep habit.

Downloads Triage Skill

The Downloads folder is where files land, not where they live — but without a triage habit it becomes the household junk drawer: installers from 2023, seventeen copies of the same logo, that PDF you needed once. The rescue is bulk-first: age and type rules dispose of 80% without item-by-item decisions ("installers older than a month: delete all"), the keepers get filed by the folder rules, and a ten-minute weekly sweep keeps the count near zero forever.

What This Skill Produces

  • The bulk rules — age × type classes that clear most of the pile in a few decisions
  • The four buckets — delete / file (with destinations) / action (it's really a task) / quarantine (unsure, dated, auto-expiring)
  • The safe-delete classes — what's always safe (installers, re-downloadables) and the two check-first classes
  • The sweep habit — the weekly ten-minute pass, plus the browser setting that helps

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The scale and vintage — item count and oldest file; a 200-item month and a 4,000-item three-years get different opening moves
  • The filing destinations — where keepers go (the folder-structure-designer structure if one exists; the _inbox if not)
  • Known treasures — anything important currently living in Downloads (tax documents in the junk drawer is common and worth asking about explicitly)

Framework: The Bulk-First Rules

  1. Sort by type, sweep by class: installers/DMGs/MSIs older than 30 days → delete all (re-downloadable by definition) · zips already extracted → delete · duplicate-numbered files (logo(3).png) → keep highest, delete rest · screenshots older than 90 days → near-always deletable, one scroll-through first. Four decisions, half the pile.
  2. Re-downloadable = deletable: anything fetchable again (statements from the bank portal, PDFs from live links, installers) carries no storage obligation — the source is the backup. The keeper test is "would losing this cost anything," not "might I want it."
  3. The two check-first classes: documents you created/edited (they may exist only here — file them), and anything money/legal/tax-shaped (file to their real home now; the junk drawer is where subpoenaed documents go missing).
  4. Quarantine ends the unsure-paralysis: the genuinely uncertain go to _quarantine-2026-07/ — dated, out of the way, deleted whole when the date is 90 days old and nothing was fetched from it. Deferred deletion with an expiry beats both agonizing and hoarding.
  5. The habit is the fix: weekly ten-minute sweep (the bulk rules make it fast), downloads-ask-where-to-save turned on in the browser for documents (files land filed), and the empty-ish Downloads becomes self-maintaining — a full junk drawer attracts junk; an empty one shames it.

Output Format

Downloads Triage: [count] items, oldest [date]

The Bulk Pass

ClassRuleEst. items
[Installers >30d: delete · extracted zips: delete · dupes: keep-highest · screenshots >90d: scroll-then-delete]

The Remainder Buckets

File: [item classes → destinations] · Action: [the files that are really tasks — into the task system] · Quarantine: [_quarantine-[date]/, expiry set]

The Habit

[Weekly sweep, 10 min · browser ask-where-to-save for docs · the treasure rule: money/legal files never live here]

Quality Checks

  • Bulk rules cleared the majority before any item-by-item work
  • Created/edited documents were separated from re-downloadables before deleting
  • Money/legal/tax files got filed to real homes immediately
  • Quarantine carries a date and an auto-expiry decision
  • The habit is scheduled, not aspirational

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not triage item-by-item from the top — bulk classes first or the session dies at file 60
  • Do not keep re-downloadables "just in case" — the source is the backup
  • Do not delete created-here documents by class — they're the one irreplaceable category
  • Do not let quarantine become the new junk drawer — no expiry, no quarantine
  • Do not skip asking about treasures — tax PDFs in Downloads is the classic finding

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Clean up my downloads folder."
  • "What's safe to delete here?"
  • "Stop my downloads from piling up."
