# DevCleaner

> DevCleaner is a free macOS menu bar app (macOS 14+, 4 MB, no account) that safely
> reclaims disk space from developer tools. It scans 22 toolchains — Xcode, Android
> Studio, JetBrains IDEs, Gradle, npm/Yarn/pnpm, Homebrew, pip, Cargo, Go, Maven,
> CocoaPods, Flutter, Unity, VS Code, and AI tools (Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT,
> Cursor, Windsurf, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, Ollama, LM Studio) — rates every
> category Safe / Warning / Danger, never pre-selects risky items, hard-protects
> credential and session files via a deny-list, and warns before cleaning caches
> of an app that is currently running.
