import VersionLabel from '@site/src/components/Docs/VersionLabel';
The proto clean command can be used to uninstall stale and unused tools, plugins, and more. By
default, it will remove items that haven't been used in the last 30 days.
$ proto clean
Furthermore, the command can be used to target a specific artifact type.
$ proto clean plugins
Cleaning stale tools does not remove records from lockfiles, as the version may still be required by a configuration, or in use on other machines.
[target] - Type of target. Accepts cache, plugins, temp, or tools.
<VersionLabel version="0.44.0" />--days - Number of days before a tool is considered stale.--json - Print the clean result in JSON format. <VersionLabel version="0.44.0" />--yes - Avoid and confirm all prompts.
