I built this because cleanup scripts scared me – they delete without showing what they're removing.

mac-cleanup-go shows a TUI preview first, so you pick what to remove. Targets Python, Go, npm, Homebrew, and 90+ other dev caches.

Built with Go. Feedback welcome!

I built a small macOS cache-cleanup tool that runs as a TUI and focuses on a review-first workflow: you see exactly what will be removed before deciding to delete anything.

On my dev machines (Docker, browsers, various dev tools), cache and app data often grow to 30–40% of disk usage. Most existing cleaners either auto-delete or obscure how items are grouped, which made them hard for me to trust.

This tool intentionally avoids automation. You inspect categories, sizes, and paths, then choose what to remove.

I’m curious what kind of cleanup tools people tend to prefer. feedback is welcome
