## Features
- **All-in-one toolkit**: CleanMyMac, AppCleaner, DaisyDisk, and iStat Menus combined into a **single binary**
- **Deep cleaning**: Scans and removes caches, logs, and browser leftovers to **reclaim gigabytes of space**
- **Smart uninstaller**: Thoroughly removes apps along with launch agents, preferences, and **hidden remnants**
- **Disk insights**: Visualizes usage, manages large files, **rebuilds caches**, and refreshes system services
- **Live monitoring**: Real-time stats for CPU, GPU, memory, disk, and network to **diagnose performance issues**
## Quick Start
**Install via Homebrew — recommended:**
```bash
brew install mole
```
**Or via script:**
```bash
# Default install
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tw93/mole/main/install.sh | bash
# Install specific version (e.g. 1.17.0 or dev)
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tw93/mole/main/install.sh | bash -s 1.17.0
```
**Run:**
```bash
mo # Interactive menu
mo clean # Deep cleanup
mo uninstall # Remove apps + leftovers
mo optimize # Refresh caches & services
mo analyze # Visual disk explorer
mo status # Live system health dashboard
mo purge # Clean project build artifacts
mo installer # Find and remove installer files
mo touchid # Configure Touch ID for sudo
mo completion # Set up shell tab completion
mo update # Update Mole
mo remove # Remove Mole from system
mo --help # Show help
mo --version # Show installed version
mo clean --dry-run # Preview the cleanup plan
mo clean --whitelist # Manage protected caches
mo clean --dry-run --debug # Detailed preview with risk levels and file info
mo optimize --dry-run # Preview optimization actions
mo optimize --debug # Run with detailed operation logs
mo optimize --whitelist # Manage protected optimization rules
mo purge --paths # Configure project scan directories
```
## Tips
- **Terminal**: iTerm2 has known compatibility issues; we recommend Alacritty, kitty, WezTerm, Ghostty, or Warp.
- **Safety**: Built with strict protections. See [Security Audit](SECURITY_AUDIT.md). Preview changes with `mo clean --dry-run`.
- **Debug Mode**: Use `--debug` for detailed logs (e.g., `mo clean --debug`). Combine with `--dry-run` for comprehensive preview including risk levels and file details.
- **Navigation**: Supports arrow keys and Vim bindings (`h/j/k/l`).
- **Configuration**: Run `mo touchid` for Touch ID sudo, `mo completion` for shell tab completion, `mo clean --whitelist` to manage protected paths.

### Project Artifact Purge
Clean old build artifacts (`node_modules`, `target`, `build`, `dist`, etc.) from your projects to free up disk space.
```bash
mo purge
Select Categories to Clean - 18.5GB (8 selected)
➤ ● my-react-app 3.2GB | node_modules
● old-project 2.8GB | node_modules
● rust-app 4.1GB | target
● next-blog 1.9GB | node_modules
○ current-work 856MB | node_modules | Recent
● django-api 2.3GB | venv
● vue-dashboard 1.7GB | node_modules
● backend-service 2.5GB | node_modules
```
> **Use with caution:** This will permanently delete selected artifacts. Review carefully before confirming. Recent projects — less than 7 days old — are marked and unselected by default.
<details>
<summary><strong>Custom Scan Paths</strong></summary>
Run `mo purge --paths` to configure which directories to scan, or edit `~/.config/mole/purge_paths` directly:
```shell
~/Documents/MyProjects
~/Work/ClientA
~/Work/ClientB
```
When custom paths are configured, only those directories are scanned. Otherwise, it defaults to `~/Projects`, `~/GitHub`, `~/dev`, etc.
</details>
### Installer Cleanup
Find and remove large installer files scattered across Downloads, Desktop, Homebrew caches, iCloud, and Mail. Each file is labeled by source to help you know where the space is hiding.
```bash
mo installer
Select Installers to Remove - 3.8GB (5 selected)
➤ ● Photoshop_2024.dmg 1.2GB | Downloads
● IntelliJ_IDEA.dmg 850.6MB | Downloads
● Illustrator_Setup.pkg 920.4MB | Downloads
● PyCharm_Pro.dmg 640.5MB | Homebrew

○ AppCode_Legacy.zip 410.6MB | Downloads
```
## Quick Launchers
Launch Mole commands instantly from Raycast or Alfred:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tw93/Mole/main/scripts/setup-quick-launchers.sh | bash
```
Adds 5 commands: `clean`, `uninstall`, `optimize`, `analyze`, `status`.
Mole automatically detects your terminal, or set `MO_LAUNCHER_APP=<name>` to override. For Raycast users: if this is your first script directory, add it via Raycast Extensions → Add Script Directory, then run "Reload Script Directories".
