snooze expire

Remove expired snooze entries and restore PRs to your pending list.

Automatically clean up snoozed PRs whose snooze duration has elapsed. Expired entries are permanently removed from the snooze list, making those PRs visible again in your pending reviews.

When to Use

Routine maintenance: Run periodically to keep your snooze list clean
After returning from vacation: Clean up old snoozes you forgot about
As part of a daily/weekly script: Automate cleanup alongside other review tasks

How It Works

Reads the .snoozed.json file from your output directory
Checks each entry’s snoozed_until timestamp against the current time
Removes entries where the snooze period has passed
Saves the updated list back to .snoozed.json
Reports how many entries were cleaned and how many remain
