These items concern a bug where the disk-cleanup plugin's category-guessing logic incorrectly treats files inside managed tool-install directories (e.g. node/, lsp/) as disposable, risking silent deletion of npm or language-server installations. The associated fixes aim to restrict auto-deletion to owned ephemeral roots and protect persistent trees.
