Description

  • we currently have a command to do so: #3887
  • good would be to call this as a background job once a week to keep the system clean

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a background job that runs the cleanup command periodically (e.g., once a week) using Nextcloud's background job infrastructure. Identify the existing CLI command from #3887 and create a Cron job class that calls the same logic.
