delete_work_dir_files.py DOX

Purpose

• Own the delete_work_dir_files.py API endpoint.
• This module handles workdir file operations for delete work dir files.
• Keep this file-level DOX profile synchronized with delete_work_dir_files.py because this directory is intentionally flat.

Ownership

• delete_work_dir_files.py owns the runtime implementation.
• delete_work_dir_files.py.dox.md owns durable notes about responsibilities, contracts, side effects, and verification for that implementation.
• Classes:
• DeleteWorkDirFiles (ApiHandler)
  • async process(self, input: Input, request: Request) -> Output
• Top-level functions:
• async delete_files(paths: list[str]) -> dict
• collapse_nested_paths(paths: list[str]) -> list[str]

Runtime Contracts

• HTTP handlers must derive from helpers.api.ApiHandler; WebSocket handlers must derive from helpers.ws.WsHandler.
• Update this file whenever request payloads, authentication or CSRF requirements, response shapes, route side effects, or WebSocket event contracts change.
• DeleteWorkDirFiles is an ApiHandler.
• DeleteWorkDirFiles defines process(...).
• Observed side-effect areas: filesystem deletion.
• Imported dependency areas include: api, api.download_work_dir_files, helpers, helpers.api, helpers.file_browser.

Key Concepts

• Important called helpers/classes observed in the source: FileBrowser, collapse_nested_paths, browser.delete_file, normalize_paths, runtime.call_development_function, path.strip, extension.call_extensions_async, item.count, clean_path.startswith, parent.rstrip.
• Keep request/response, tool, or helper semantics documented here at the same time as source changes.

Work Guidance

• Preserve authentication, CSRF, loopback, and API-key checks unless the endpoint contract explicitly changes.
• Update frontend callers, plugin callers, and tests together when payload shape changes.
• Use helpers.api.Response for non-JSON responses, files, redirects, or status-specific replies.

Verification

• Run endpoint-specific or API/WebSocket tests for changed behavior; smoke-test browser callers when no focused test exists.
• No direct test reference was found by name search; choose the nearest behavioral test or perform a focused smoke check.
