Research direction
Start in bin/coco.js, especially checkForUpdate and the uninstall command path, then reproduce the npm 1.5.0 install/uninstall sequence from the issue. Compare the home-directory snapshot before installation and after uninstall across the codex, generic, and aider adapters. Done means the installed ~/.coco/.update-check.json and its directory no longer remain after uninstall.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Adapter: codex, generic, aider (npm wrapper, any adapter)
Install path: npm 1.5.0
Exact command
cd $HOME/project
npx -y [email protected] install --adapter codex
rm AGENTS.md # docs/install.md Uninstall (codex/generic)
npx -y [email protected] uninstall # README: "remove symlinks + clone"
# diff HOME snapshot pre-install vs post-uninstall (npm cache excluded)
Expected: uninstall leaves nothing behind. The install created ~/.coco/, so uninstall removes it.
Actual: install runs the update check (bin/coco.js checkForUpdate), which creates ~/.coco/.update-check.json. uninstall only removes symlinks in ~/.claude|.cursor|.grok|.copilot and the clone, so ~/.coco/ stays behind. Seen on all three adapters. Related: #239 (the same ~/.coco then breaks the README bootstrap).
Output
$ npx -y [email protected] uninstall
Removing symlinks pointing into /workspace/si-dogfood/kiara/home/npm-codex/project/coco...
Removing clone at /workspace/si-dogfood/kiara/home/npm-codex/project/coco...
Uninstalled.
