🧯 Lancetta how-to #6 — take back what your agents leave behind
🧯 Your agents cost you quota while you work. They cost you disk and memory afterwards.
🧟 Orphaned background processes, started for folders that no longer exist, so nothing will ever close them. On the Mac where this was first measured: 28 processes holding 2.68 GB. Reclaim shows you the list before it stops anything.

💾 Since 0.62.0, the Storage card: installs that stopped halfway, superseded releases, build caches of ended sessions, files ChatGPT copied out and left behind.

🔒 Nothing in use is offered. Each folder is checked again right before it moves. It goes to the Trash, so the Finder can put it back.
