# Rollback Cleanup Plan

Updated: 2026-05-25 HST / 2026-05-26 UTC

## Purpose

This plan documents the current rollback/reference material left after the iCloud `Shared Projects` migration. It is intentionally non-destructive: do not delete, prune, or overwrite any rollback folder until Nick explicitly approves a specific cleanup batch.

## Current Rollback Locations

| Location | Approx. size | Current role |
| --- | ---: | --- |
| `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated` | 6.8G | Local rollback/reference copy for migrated Desktop and project material after generated-artifact cleanup |
| `Shared Projects/archived-projects/desktop-migrated-rollbacks/Migrated` | 1.8G | iCloud rollback copy of the pre-cleanup `Migrated` project folders |

The iCloud rollback copy is smaller because it was captured before the later `desktop-cleanup-2026-05-25` Desktop consolidation was added to `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated`.

## Git Repositories Still Present In Rollback Trees

The following rollback folders contain `.git` repositories in both Desktop and the iCloud rollback copy:

- `ACD`
- `GIT`
- `Glass Vodka`
- `MCI`
- `Mission Control`
- `Shot Clock`
- `traveltechus-com`

These are reference copies only. The active/canonical project repos now live under `Shared Projects/`, and the approved active/live/archive repos have private GitHub coverage. Do not continue development inside rollback copies.

## Desktop Rollback Size Hotspots

| Folder | Approx. size | Notes |
| --- | ---: | --- |
| `desktop-cleanup-2026-05-25` | 6.1G | Consolidated original Desktop sources after cleanup migration; includes raw backup-review, personal archive material, large media, and backup artifacts |
| `MCI` | 714M | Old project copy with generated dependencies/build artifacts |
| `traveltechus-com` | 509M | Old project copy with generated dependencies/build artifacts |
| `ACD DIVI` | 372M | Historical Aloha Challenge Coins Divi/material copy |
| `Duke Plumb` | 116M | Historical website copy including backup/database artifacts |
| `Glass Vodka` | 52M | Archived project rollback |
| `laspanishlessons` | 48M | Historical backup/source material including SQL and backup zips |

## Detected Generated Or Backup-Heavy Material

Generated/cache folders found inside the rollback tree:

- `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated/traveltechus-com/node_modules`
- `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated/traveltechus-com/.next`
- `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated/MCI/node_modules`
- `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated/MCI/.next`
- `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated/desktop-cleanup-2026-05-25/Lacie/.cache`

Backup/database/archive artifacts found inside rollback material include WordPress backup zips/tars, SQL dumps, and personal archive zips. These should stay out of Git and should not be synced forward into active project source. If long-term retention is needed, prefer TrueNAS/Backblaze over duplicated Desktop storage.

Large files over 100M include screen recordings, personal/media files, WordPress backup archives, and `node_modules` binary packages. These are not active source-control assets.

## Cleanup Recommendation

Recommended cleanup order, after explicit approval:

1. Confirm the active canonical iCloud project folders and private GitHub repos open cleanly.
2. Keep one rollback lane only: either Desktop rollback temporarily, or TrueNAS/Backblaze archival storage. Avoid maintaining both Desktop and iCloud rollback duplicates long term.
3. Remove generated dependency/build artifacts from rollback copies first (`node_modules`, `.next`, `.cache`) if Nick wants quick local disk recovery without losing authored source.
4. Move raw backup zips/tars/SQL dumps to TrueNAS/Backblaze retention if they are still needed; otherwise mark them for deletion in a separate batch.
5. Delete `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated` only after Nick confirms the rollback window is over and the iCloud/GitHub/TrueNAS coverage is sufficient.

## Approved Cleanup Completed

Nick approved the first narrow cleanup batch on 2026-05-25 HST / 2026-05-26 UTC. Removed generated build/dependency artifacts only from `/Users/nick/Desktop/Migrated`:

- `traveltechus-com/node_modules`
- `traveltechus-com/.next`
- `MCI/node_modules`
- `MCI/.next`
- `desktop-cleanup-2026-05-25/Lacie/.cache`

Post-cleanup Desktop rollback size: about 6.8G.

No source folders, Git history, backup archives, SQL dumps, personal archives, or raw backup-review folders were removed.

## Current Recommendation

Do not delete additional rollback material yet. The next safest operational step is to decide whether raw backup archives should be retained on TrueNAS/Backblaze, then remove duplicate local rollback copies only after Nick explicitly approves that batch.
