First public release of Cleanton, a native macOS disk cleaner for developers.

Read before you run it

Cleanton removes files from your disk. You choose what goes, and you confirm the final list. Removed items go to the Trash by default, so a mistake is recoverable until you empty it. Read the plan and its sizes before acting, and back up anything you cannot lose. See the safety guide.

What it does

  • Finds reclaimable space from Rust, Node, Swift, Python, Docker, and machine learning caches and artifacts
  • Groups results and lets you select or skip individual items
  • Suggests large folders and re-clonable git repositories for review, without removing them
  • Reviews and cleans npm, pip, Homebrew, and MacPorts packages, with dependency-aware removal and codebase-usage warnings

Downloads

  • cleanton-app-macos-arm64.tar.gz is the app. It is signed with the Olib AI Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, so it opens without a Gatekeeper override. Move Cleanton.app to your Applications folder.

  • cleanton-cli-macos-arm64.tar.gz is the command-line tool. Install it with the script below, which clears the macOS quarantine flag for you:

    curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Olib-AI/cleanton/main/scripts/install.sh | sh

    If you install it by hand, run xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ./cleanton once before the first launch.
