Mole Mac Cleaner

If your Mac is sluggish and you're tired of hunting down cache folders and orphaned app files, this skill wraps the Mole CLI into Claude. It handles the full spectrum: deep cleaning system and browser caches, truly uninstalling apps with all their hidden remnants, visualizing disk usage with an interactive navigator, purging node_modules and build artifacts across projects, and live monitoring system health. The dry run flags are essential since most operations are destructive. It shines when you need to reclaim 20GB before a deploy or audit what's eating disk space without opening Finder. Built for developers who prefer terminal workflows and want one tool instead of juggling five cleanup utilities.
