What are all the folders and files in here for latest WHM and Centos 7.7?

cpanel3-skel
kernelcare-latest-7.rpm
perl5
tmp

are what I have.

Can I delete all but cpanel3-skel? Just want to clean up a little bit.

What you see there are content of the /root folder.
There are much more, if you type:
Code:
ls -la
you see all the "hidden" files (that start with a dot).
I suggest you don't delete anything unless you know you can delete it.

I wholeheartedly second @quietFinn's suggestion. Do not delete anything you're not 100% positive you should be removing. If the issue is that you don't have enough space, there are better ways to address it and I'd be happy to help.
