- Synchronized Ansible roles with removed redundant packages. - Performed system audit (performance, boot, disk usage). - Organized home directory by removing 22 clean remote repositories. - Reclaimed ~21GB of disk space in ~/Projects. - Retained dirty repositories and those without remote origins for safety. - Updated documentation (performance tuning, software stack, setup). - Created NEXT_STEPS.md and documented learnings.

# Workstation Organization
|
|
|
|
## Problem
|
|
Home directory was cluttered with 4+ years of project history (104GB) and redundant software packages.
|
|
|
|
## Solution
|
|
1. **Software Cleanup**: Two phases of package removal synced to Ansible (`state: absent`).
|
|
2. **Project Audit**: Scripted identification of Git repositories.
|
|
3. **Automated Removal**: Deleted 22 clean repositories that have remote origins.
|
|
4. **Safety**: Retained dirty repos and repos without remotes.
|
|
|
|
## Reclaimed
|
|
- Disk Space: ~21 GB in Projects + ~2.4 GB in system packages.
