bino cache clean

bino cache clean removes cached data created by previous runs. Use it when schema changes, data locations change, or caches get too large.

Cache Locations

Bino uses two cache directories:

• Local cache (.bncache/) – project-specific dataset results, stored in the workdir.
• Global cache (~/.bn/) – shared resources like preview CDN files and DuckDB extensions.

Usage

bino cache clean [flags]

Common flags:

• --work-dir, -w – workdir whose local cache (.bncache/) should be removed (default: .).
• --global – also remove the global cache (~/.bn/).

Examples

Remove caches for the current workdir only:

bino cache clean

Remove all caches (local and global):

bino cache clean --global

Clearing caches may increase build time for the next run but can fix issues caused by stale intermediate data.
