-- Never remove active/in-progress runs
-- Remove orphaned process files not referenced by remaining runs
-- After cleanup, show remaining run count and disk usage
+
+CRITICAL: The cleanup MUST follow this exact phase order. Do NOT delete any run before Phase 2 completes.
+
+Phase 1 — Scan:
+- Scan .a5c/runs/ for all runs
+- Classify each as terminal (completed/failed) or active (in-progress/created)
+- Identify terminal runs older than the keep-days threshold as removal candidates
+- Never mark active/in-progress runs for removal
+- Count and report: total runs, terminal, active, removal candidates, disk usage
+
+Phase 2 — Aggregate insights (BEFORE any deletion):
+- For EVERY removal candidate, read its run.json and journal/ events
+- Extract: processId, prompt, status, event count, created date, task summaries
+- Group by process type and extract patterns (retry counts, convergence behavior, failure modes)
+- Append a new dated section to docs/run-history-insights.md with:
+  - Summary statistics (runs removed, disk freed, runs retained)
+  - Run categories with counts and descriptions
+  - Key patterns observed (multi-batch convergence, retry behavior, etc.)
+  - What worked well / what didn't from the run data
+- This file MUST be written and verified before proceeding to Phase 3
+
+Phase 3 — Confirm removal:
+- In interactive mode, show the user what will be removed via a breakpoint
+- In non-interactive mode (yolo), proceed with defaults
+- In dry-run mode, stop here and show what would be removed
+
+Phase 4 — Remove:
+- Delete the terminal runs older than keep-days threshold
+- Identify and remove orphaned process files not referenced by remaining runs

+Follow the commands below exactly. but apply judgement and creativity to get the job done. no matter how small or simple the task may seem, you must use the babysitter SDK and run lifecycle to execute it. This is non-negotiable. If you are asked to do something that seems like it could be done with a simple tool call, you must still use the babysitter SDK to create a run, define tasks, execute them, and complete the run. This is how you will learn and demonstrate mastery of the babysitter system. Always follow the full process, even for trivial tasks.

 Implementation notes (for the process):
 - Parse arguments for `--dry-run` flag (if present, set dryRun: true in inputs) and `--keep-days N` (default: 7)
-- The process scans .a5c/runs/ for completed/failed runs, aggregates insights, writes summaries, then removes old data

-- Never remove active/in-progress runs
-- Remove orphaned process files not referenced by remaining runs
-- After cleanup, show remaining run count and disk usage
+
+CRITICAL: The cleanup MUST follow this exact phase order. Do NOT delete any run before Phase 2 completes.
+
+Phase 1 — Scan:
+- Scan .a5c/runs/ for all runs
+- Classify each as terminal (completed/failed) or active (in-progress/created)
+- Identify terminal runs older than the keep-days threshold as removal candidates
+- Never mark active/in-progress runs for removal
+- Count and report: total runs, terminal, active, removal candidates, disk usage
+
+Phase 2 — Aggregate insights (BEFORE any deletion):
+- For EVERY removal candidate, read its run.json and journal/ events
+- Extract: processId, prompt, status, event count, created date, task summaries
+- Group by process type and extract patterns (retry counts, convergence behavior, failure modes)
+- Append a new dated section to docs/run-history-insights.md with:
+  - Summary statistics (runs removed, disk freed, runs retained)
+  - Run categories with counts and descriptions
+  - Key patterns observed (multi-batch convergence, retry behavior, etc.)
+  - What worked well / what didn't from the run data
+- This file MUST be written and verified before proceeding to Phase 3
+
+Phase 3 — Confirm removal:
+- In interactive mode, show the user what will be removed via a breakpoint
+- In non-interactive mode (yolo), proceed with defaults
+- In dry-run mode, stop here and show what would be removed
+
+Phase 4 — Remove:
+- Delete the terminal runs older than keep-days threshold
+- Identify and remove orphaned process files not referenced by remaining runs
+- Show remaining run count and disk usage after cleanup
