There's no way directly to do this in Guacamole, but it should be pretty
simple to manage on the system where guacd is running with a script and a
cron job. For example, to clean up after 7 days, you'd just need to run
something like:
find /var/lib/guacamole/recordings -type f -mtime +7 -exec rm -fv {} \;

Yes - there is an extension that connects the Guacamole Client interface
with the recordings:
