v0.1.0Mac cleanup skills: survey what takes space and memory without changing anything, remove only the caches and leftovers that programs recreate, find byte-identical duplicate files and park the obvious copies in the Trash, and find data, login items and launch agents left by uninstalled apps. Every deletion of user data is a decision the user makes from a written list.

Included Skills2
Clean up and speed up a Mac in three tiers with two bundled scripts. A read-only survey (disk, caches, Docker, Homebrew, apps with last-used dates, login items, memory and swap) is followed by a safe tier that removes only what programs recreate (npm, Go, uv and pip caches, Docker build cache and orphan buildx volumes, stuck Docker Desktop downloads, Electron updater downloads, Xcode DerivedData, old logs, Chrome cache when Chrome is closed, login items whose app is gone), and then a written decision list for everything that is the user's call (duplicate or unused apps, leftovers of uninstalled apps, duplicate photos, old git worktrees and node_modules, CI caches, what is eating memory). Use when asked to clean, optimise, speed up, free space on or "look at" a Mac, when the disk is full, when there are "too many apps" or "duplicate apps", or when a Mac feels slow. Not for Windows or Linux, not a malware scan, and not for emptying the Trash or deleting any user file without the user's explicit yes.
Find byte-for-byte duplicate files in a Mac's user folders with a bundled script (size grouping, then partial and full hashing), report the largest groups and which folders mirror each other, and single out "suffix copies" (IMG_1 (1).MOV next to an identical IMG_1.MOV) that can be moved to a dated Trash folder after a second hash check, with the original untouched. Use when asked to find duplicate files, photos or videos, when phone exports or backup folders seem to repeat each other, when a cleanup needs to know what is wasted in Desktop, Documents, Pictures or Downloads, or when someone wants "the (1) copies gone". Not for near-duplicates (resized, re-encoded or HEIC versus JPEG), not for the Photos library package, and not for deleting anything outright.
