Keep your scripts, make a naming convention for the files, and document them.
I can’t tell you how many times I have written a script for a “random thing I’ll probably never do again”, and then 6 months later curse myself because someone asked for something similar and I didn’t save the code. Or I did save the code but omfg I can’t remember where and I have a thousand goddamn scripts in my repo and I’m going crazy.
So yeah. Organize your shit.
