     Fails when the latest verified upload is older than STALE_HOURS, its
     receipt is not verified, or the local ciphertext no longer matches it.
 
+After each verified upload, local run directories older than
+LOCAL_RETENTION_DAYS are pruned. The current run is never pruned, and
+nothing at the provider is ever deleted.
