CLI reference

Every macleanup command-line flag — selection, confirmation, thresholds, output, persistence and informational commands — with defaults, examples and exit codes.

Introduction

macleanup is a safe-by-default macOS cleanup CLI that reclaims disk space from caches, logs, stale build artefacts and unused apps — with per-section confirmation and a real dry-run.

Preview with --dry-run

How to see exactly which files macleanup would delete, without deleting anything — the flag to use first on every new machine, section and script.

Profiles

The five named macleanup section bundles — dev, minimal, cache-only, deep and audit — what each one runs, when to use it, and which of them can delete permanently.

Recipes

Copy-paste macleanup commands organised by goal — reclaim developer space, audit before deciding, uninstall an app properly, automate a weekly sweep.
