AI Footprint 0.1.0

First release of AI Footprint, a free, open-source menu bar app that shows what AI coding tools leave on your Mac.

• Disk use per tool: Claude Code, the Claude app, Codex, Ollama, LM Studio and Hugging Face, split into models, caches, logs, transcripts and installed versions, with the biggest things in each folder.
• Processes, with their memory and what keeps them running: an app, a terminal, a login item, another tool, or nothing.
• MCP servers, with the tool that started them. Orphaned servers whose app has quit are flagged.
• Login items each tool installed, and when they run.
• Update receipts: when a tool updates, installs itself, or adds or removes a login item, see the version change, the disk each folder gained or lost, and the login items that came or went.
• Copy Stop Command and Show in Finder for everything. AI Footprint itself never deletes or stops anything.
• Runs in the App Sandbox with no network access and read-only access to the tools' folders, listed one by one so their tokens, keys and settings stay out of reach. No dependencies.

Install

Download AI-Footprint.zip below, unzip it, and move AI Footprint to Applications. The first time you open it, macOS may say it can't verify the app, because it isn't notarized. Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway. Details are in the README.

Works on Apple silicon and Intel Macs with macOS 14 Sonoma or later.
