What is mole-mac-cleanup?
mole-mac-cleanup is an all-in-one system utility designed for macOS power users and automated agents. It combines the functionality of popular tools like CleanMyMac and DaisyDisk into a high-performance command-line interface. By integrating this tool into your Openclaw Skills library, you gain the ability to manage system health, reclaim disk space, and optimize performance through a single, unified interface.
The tool is specifically built to handle deep cleaning of caches, logs, and browser leftovers, while also providing a smart uninstaller to remove applications along with their hidden remnants. Its focus on non-interactive execution makes it an ideal addition to Openclaw Skills for those looking to automate system maintenance tasks reliably without manual intervention.
mole-mac-cleanup Use Cases
- Reclaiming disk space by removing system caches, logs, and browser data.
- Safely uninstalling macOS applications and removing all associated hidden files.
- Purging developer project artifacts like node_modules or build directories to free up storage.
- Automating system optimization tasks such as rebuilding Spotlight indexes and resetting network services.
- Auditing disk usage and identifying large files before performing a cleanup via Openclaw Skills.
How mole-mac-cleanup Works
- Run a dry run using the --dry-run flag to preview exactly which files and directories will be affected by the cleanup or optimization.
- Execute the clean command to remove user app caches, developer tool residues, and system-level logs.
- Trigger the optimize command to rebuild system databases, clear network caches, and refresh core services like Finder and Dock.
- Use the purge functionality to scan for and delete heavy build artifacts across specified project directories defined in the Openclaw Skills workflow.
- Manage whitelist configurations to ensure critical paths or system services are protected during automated maintenance.
mole-mac-cleanup Setup
Install the tool via Homebrew and configure it for command-line use within Openclaw Skills:
brew install mole
mo completion
mo touchid
Note: The primary command is mo, which provides the core interface for all cleanup operations.
mole-mac-cleanup Data Schema & Taxonomy
The tool manages data across several key areas of the macOS filesystem:
| Category | Targets |
|---|---|
| Cleanup Targets | User caches, Browser data (Chrome, Safari, Firefox), Xcode, Node.js |
| Optimization | System databases, Launch services, Spotlight index, Network services |
| Config Path | ~/.config/mole/purge_paths (for project artifact scan locations) |
| Installer Scan | Downloads, Desktop, Homebrew caches, iCloud, Mail attachments |
