Dig deep like a mole to clean your Mac.


Changelog

  1. Touch ID support – Added request_sudo_access with Touch ID fallback and cleaner privileged action flow.
  2. Better cleaning – Improved whitelist handling, progress display, and cache/orphan detection.
  3. Loading & links – Unified spinner style, improved parallel jobs, and cleaned up analyze temp files and link hints.
  4. Visual inspection – Refreshed analyze view with badge icons, faster mdfind loops, and clearer headers for large media.
  5. Dry-run safety – Ensured nothing is deleted in --dry-run mode and validated whitelist entries first.
  6. Uninstall protection – Added strict path checks and manual confirmation to prevent system deletions.
  7. Locale fixes – Forced neutral LC_ALL/LANG, replaced spinners with ASCII, and muted debug noise.
  8. Container safety – Stopped auto-removal of “orphaned” containers by default.
  9. Removed a lot of emojis. I don’t like emojis very much now.
