Environments

This page lists the safe and destructive patterns in the Environment Managers and R Language shell guard packs. See Shell Tool for how these patterns are evaluated.

Destructive patterns

Rule ID	Reason	Suggestion	Confidence
`environments.managers.conda_env_remove`	Permanently removes a Conda environment and all installed packages	Use `conda env export` to save the environment specification first	High
`environments.managers.conda_clean_all`	Removes all cached packages, tarballs, and index caches	Use `conda clean --dry-run --all` to preview what will be removed	Medium
`environments.managers.pip_uninstall`	Uninstalls Python packages which may break dependent packages	Use `pip show <package>` to review dependents before uninstalling	Medium
`environments.managers.virtualenv_remove`	Removes a Python virtual environment directory	Backup with `pip freeze > requirements.txt` before deleting the environment	Medium
`environments.managers.mamba_env_remove`	Permanently removes a Mamba/Conda environment and all installed packages	Use `mamba env export` to save the environment specification first	High
`environments.managers.uv_cache_clean`	Removes the entire uv package cache	Use `uv cache dir` to inspect the cache location first	Medium
`environments.managers.micromamba_env_remove`	Permanently removes a Micromamba environment and all installed packages	Use `micromamba env export` to save the environment specification first	High
`environments.managers.poetry_env_remove`	Removes a Poetry virtual environment	Use `poetry env info` to review the environment first	Medium
`environments.managers.pipenv_rm`	Removes the Pipenv virtual environment	Ensure `Pipfile.lock` is committed so the environment can be recreated	Medium
`environments.managers.spack_uninstall_all`	Uninstalls all Spack packages, potentially removing shared dependencies	Uninstall specific packages by name; review with `spack find` first	High

R Language

Pack ID: environments.r

Guards against destructive R package management operations

Safe patterns

Rule ID	Pattern
`environments.r.r_version`	`^R\s+--version\b[^\|><]*$`
`environments.r.rscript_version`	`^Rscript\s+--version\b[^\|><]*$`

Destructive patterns

Rule ID	Reason	Suggestion	Confidence
`environments.r.r_remove_packages`	Removes installed R packages	Use `installed.packages()` to review before removing	Medium
`environments.r.r_unlink`	Recursively deletes files or directories from an R script	Verify paths with `list.files()` before deleting	Medium
