## Features

1. All-in-one toolkit equal to CleanMyMac + AppCleaner + DaisyDisk + Sensei + iStat in one trusted binary.
2. Deep cleanup finds and removes caches, temp files, browser leftovers, and junk to free up tens of gigabytes.
3. Smart uninstall finds app bundles plus launch agents, settings, caches, logs, and leftover files.
4. Disk insight + optimization show large files, display folders, rebuild caches, clean swap, refresh services.
5. Live status shows CPU, GPU, memory, disk, network, battery, and proxy data so you can find problems.

## Quick Start

**Install:**

```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tw93/mole/main/install.sh | bash
```

Or via Homebrew:

```bash
brew install tw93/tap/mole
```

**Run:**

```bash
mo                           # Interactive menu
mo clean                     # Deep cleanup
mo uninstall                 # Remove apps + leftovers
mo optimize                  # Refresh caches & services
mo analyze                   # Visual disk explorer
mo status                    # Live system health dashboard

mo touchid                   # Configure Touch ID for sudo
mo update                    # Update Mole
mo remove                    # Remove Mole from system
mo --help                    # Show help
mo --version                 # Show installed version

mo clean --dry-run           # Preview cleanup plan
mo clean --whitelist         # Adjust protected caches
mo uninstall --force-rescan  # Rescan apps and refresh cache
mo optimize --whitelist      # Adjust protected optimization items

```

## Tips

- Safety first, if your Mac is very important, wait for Mole to become stable before full cleanups.
- Preview the cleanup by running `mo clean --dry-run` and reviewing the list.
- Use `mo clean --whitelist` to manage protected caches.
- Use `mo touchid` to approve sudo with Touch ID instead of typing your password.
- Prefer Vim-style navigation? All menus understand `h/j/k/l` in addition to the arrow keys.
- Run into issues? Use `--debug` flag to see detailed operation logs: `mo clean --debug`

## Quick Launchers

Launch Mole commands instantly from Raycast or Alfred:

```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tw93/Mole/main/scripts/setup-quick-launchers.sh | bash
```

Adds 5 commands: `clean`, `uninstall`, `optimize`, `analyze`, `status`. Finds your terminal automatically or set `MO_LAUNCHER_APP=<name>` to override.

For Raycast, reload by running `Reload Script Directories` or restarting Raycast. For Alfred, workflows are registered automatically and ready to use.
