What is Mac Cleanup?
The Mac Cleanup skill is a powerful maintenance tool designed specifically for the macOS ecosystem. By integrating seamlessly with Openclaw Skills, it provides a programmatic way to handle the routine digital hygiene tasks that keep a MacBook Pro running smoothly. This skill targets high-impact areas where storage bloat typically occurs, allowing developers and power users to maintain their systems without manual effort.
Built to be efficient and safe, this skill focuses on non-critical temporary files and user-defined cleanup zones. Whether you are dealing with a bloated Library folder or a cluttered Downloads directory, this addition to your Openclaw Skills library ensures your machine stays lean and performant.
Mac Cleanup Use Cases
- Automatically clearing system-level user caches to resolve application performance issues.
- Freeing up immediate storage by programmatically emptying the system Trash.
- Managing the Downloads folder by purging files that have been sitting idle for over a month.
- Setting up recurring maintenance tasks to ensure consistent disk space availability.
How Mac Cleanup Works
- The skill receives the cleanup command through the Openclaw Skills execution layer.
- It targets the ~/Library/Caches directory to safely remove temporary application data.
- It accesses the ~/.Trash folder to perform a permanent deletion of all queued items.
- It scans the ~/Downloads folder and compares file modification dates against a 30-day threshold.
- Files meeting the age criteria are deleted, and a summary of reclaimed space is provided to the user.
Mac Cleanup Setup
To install the Mac Cleanup skill, use the following command in your terminal:
openclaw install mac-cleanup
Ensure that your environment has the necessary permissions to access system folders. You may need to grant Full Disk Access to your terminal or the agent executing Openclaw Skills in your macOS System Settings.
