osXos v0.2.2

Twenty-one new tools. Every platform now fills all seven of its categories — Windows 25 tools, macOS 18, Linux 16.

✨ Switch Dark / Light Mode, on every OS

  • Flips the operating system's own mode, apps and shell together, and runs again to switch back.
  • Windows: AppsUseLightTheme and SystemUsesLightTheme, then the same ImmersiveColorSet broadcast Settings sends, so the taskbar and open apps redraw on the spot.
  • macOS: asks System Events, the same switch as System Settings → Appearance. macOS asks once to allow Automation.
  • Linux: KDE Plasma between Breeze Light and Dark; GNOME and friends through color-scheme, plus the GTK theme's -dark variant when one is installed.

✨ Clear Developer Caches and Clear Browser Caches

  • Developer caches: npm, Yarn, Bun, Deno, node-gyp, pip, uv, NuGet, Go build, Cargo and Gradle — never a project folder, Maven's local repository, Go's module cache or pnpm's store.
  • Browser caches: every profile in Chrome, Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, Chromium and Firefox — never cookies, passwords, history or bookmarks.

✨ Windows

  • Clear Shader Caches (DirectX, NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and Clear Crash Dumps & Error Reports.
  • Classic Right-Click Menu for Windows 11, Show Seconds on the Taskbar Clock, Show Full Path in Explorer Titles.
  • Startup Apps Report: both Run keys and both Startup folders, each marked enabled or disabled as Task Manager records it. Read-only.

✨ macOS

  • Empty Trash through Finder, so osXos never needs Full Disk Access. Reset Quick Look Cache.
  • Restart Dock, Show Finder Path & Status Bars, Save Screenshots to Pictures.
  • Clear Xcode Build Data (Archives are kept) and Delete Unavailable Simulators.

✨ Linux

  • Empty Trash, Remove Unused Flatpak Runtimes, and Clean Package Cache for apt, dnf, pacman or zypper — the second tool in osXos that asks for administrator rights, through polkit.
  • Restart Audio for PipeWire or PulseAudio, and a read-only Failed Services Report.

✨ AI Assistants

  • New: Clear AI Temp Files — per-session scratchpads, shell snapshots, Codex's temp folders, and the pasted images and git indexes Codex leaves in the system temp folder.
  • Fixed: Clear AI Tool Caches no longer deletes Gemini's saved chats. ~/.gemini/tmp holds each project's conversations and is now treated as history.
  • Results now read "N items across M locations".

✨ A light/dark switch for osXos itself

  • On the top bar, in Settings, and under View → Dark Mode in the menu bar. Each mode remembers its own palette.

Platforms

Windows is verified. The macOS and Linux builds are cross-compiled, and their tools are tested against fakes only — they have not been run on a Mac or a Linux machine.
