UV Package Manager - Clearing Excessive 25GB Cache


Is 25GB For a MCP Tools Cache Normal?

I'm not a heavy #python user, but the uv package manager cache was still holding 25GB of data. 😅

I only use it to run/install a few MCP servers.

Turns out you can, and probably should, clear it out once in a while. Use the command:
uv cache clean
