"circleci.object_type" === "project.cache" |
15 | Dependency caches | The first build after deletion will be slow due to cache miss. |

This is where audit logs are saved. Deleting this folder and files under this fodler has no impact on future operation of CircleCI, but deleted logs will be definitely lost and cannot be recovered.
This is where signing keys for macOS/iOS apps are stored. This folder is no longer used actively.
This is where statistic data collected with store_test_results resides. The data is used for future test splitting with circleci tests split --split-by=timings. Deleting test results will cause CIRCLE BUG errors in future jobs using parallelism.
