V1.33.0 Lynx 🐱

Mole V1.33.0

Deep clean and optimize your Mac.

Changelog

1. mo analyze: Added hidden-space insights to the overview screen, surfacing iOS Backups, old Downloads (90d+), and developer caches (Xcode, Gradle, JetBrains, Docker, pip, CocoaPods, Spotify) with their actual sizes.
2. mo analyze: Added cleanable insights panel showing Trash, system caches, and Xcode artifacts so you can see what mo clean can recover before running it.
3. mo status: Battery health scoring and uptime warning added to the health score; the score now factors in cycle count, capacity, and days since last restart.
4. mo check: New Dev Environment section in mo optimize that surfaces broken Launch Agents, missing dev tools, and version conflicts (e.g. psql vs postgres, python vs pyenv).
5. mo clean: Docker cleanup is now skipped by default with a hint to review via docker system df, preventing accidental data loss when the daemon is not running.

V1.32.0 Rorqual 🐋

Mole V1.32.0

Deep clean and optimize your Mac.

Changelog

1. mo clean: Wallpaper agent and Messages preview caches are now always cleaned. Both processes run permanently in the background on macOS, so the previous running-process guards caused these caches to be silently skipped on every run.
2. mo clean: Python bytecode cache output now shows only the project directory name instead of the full path, keeping the summary readable on wide directory trees.
3. mo clean: Fixed a gtimeout error in service worker cache cleanup. gtimeout cannot wrap shell functions, so the size call now runs directly.
4. mo clean: Brave Browser version cleanup now checks for broken Current symlinks before proceeding, matching the guard already in place for Chrome and Edge.
5. mo clean: Spotify cache protection now correctly detects active playback by checking bnk file size. Previously the check could incorrectly protect or clean the cache.
6. mo clean: Added PCSX2 and RPCS3 emulator cache and log cleanup. Save data and configurations are intentionally left untouched.
7. mo analyze: ESC now quits the tool when already at the top-level overview, consistent with Q and Ctrl+C.
8. mo uninstall: Background-only helper apps flagged with LSBackgroundOnly are filtered from the app list. Invisible helpers no longer appear as uninstall targets. First-run size display now loads all app sizes instead of limiting to the inline metadata cap.
9. Main menu: TouchID detection now checks /etc/pam.d/sudo_local in addition to /etc/pam.d/sudo, fixing false negatives on macOS Sequoia. Added V shortcut to view version info directly from the main menu.
10. Installation: Sudo credential is now pre-warmed with a single prompt before file installation, eliminating repeated password requests. Fixed a rare case where install channel metadata could not be written.

---

更新日志

1. mo clean：壁纸代理和 Messages 预览缓存现在始终执行清理。两个进程在 macOS 上永久驻留后台，此前的运行状态守卫导致这些缓存每次都被静默跳过。
2. mo clean：Python 字节码缓存输出现在只显示项目目录名，不再显示完整路径，提升宽目录树场景下的可读性。
3. mo clean：修复 Service Worker 缓存清理中的 gtimeout 报错。gtimeout 无法包装 shell 函数，大小计算现在直接调用。
4. mo clean：Brave Browser 版本清理现在在操作前检查 Current 符号链接是否损坏，与 Chrome 和 Edge 已有的守卫保持一致。
5. mo clean：Spotify 缓存保护现在通过检查 bnk 文件大小来正确判断是否正在播放，修复了此前可能误保护或误清理的问题。
6. mo clean：新增 PCSX2 和 RPCS3 模拟器缓存及日志清理，存档和配置文件不受影响。
7. mo analyze：在顶层概览界面按 ESC 现在会直接退出，与 Q 和 Ctrl+C 行为一致。
8. mo uninstall：带有 LSBackgroundOnly 标记的后台辅助程序从应用列表中过滤，不可见辅助进程不再出现在卸载目标中。首次运行时现在加载全部应用大小，不再受内联元数据上限限制。
9. 主菜单：TouchID 检测现在同时检查 /etc/pam.d/sudo_local，修复 macOS Sequoia 下误判未配置的问题。新增 V 快捷键可直接从主菜单查看版本信息。
10. 安装：文件安装前统一预热 sudo 凭证，消除多次输入密码的问题。修复安装渠道元数据偶发写入失败的告警。

V1.31.0 Makima 🐕

Mole V1.31.0

Deep clean and optimize your Mac.

Changelog

1. Performance: Scan phase is significantly faster across mo clean, mo purge, and mo optimize. Cache root discovery runs in parallel, per-item subprocess forks are replaced with bash parameter expansion, and brew outdated checks run concurrently with timeout protection.
2. mo status: Fixed APFS disk capacity reporting — gopsutil could return inflated totals on external volumes. Now uses a three-tier fallback: Finder → diskutil APFS → raw statfs. Finder probe failures are cached to avoid repeated timeouts.
3. mo status: Added persistent high-CPU process alerts. Processes exceeding the CPU threshold for a sustained window are flagged in the status display. Configurable via --proc-cpu-threshold (default 100%) and --proc-cpu-window (default 5 minutes).
4. mo status: Fixed ghost lines appearing when the terminal is resized.
5. mo clean: Fixed incomplete download cleanup silently skipping files whose names contain spaces. Files currently in use are also skipped.
6. mo clean: Preserved Mole runtime logs, tealdeer tldr cache, and Aerial wallpaper assets — these are no longer removed during a standard clean. Added opt-in Docker unused data pruning.
7. mo clean: Dry-run preview no longer shows duplicate entries for alias paths or symlinks pointing to the same location. Application support cleanup now respects the user whitelist, and system launch agents are explicitly protected.
8. mo purge: Full paths are now shown during item selection and confirmation. Long paths are intelligently compressed to fit the terminal width instead of being hard-truncated at 60 characters. Size calculations run in parallel to prevent the menu hanging on large projects.
9. mo uninstall: Fixed relative symlink resolution during app cleanup. Improved brew uninstall fallback consistency. Added detection for bundle-ID-derived extension leftovers.
10. macOS update / sudo: Update detection now uses softwareupdate output directly, eliminating false positives. Sudo credential prompting passes through the system's native PAM prompt instead of a hardcoded string, ensuring correct behavior across locales.

---

更新日志

1. 性能提升：mo clean、mo purge、mo optimize 的扫描阶段大幅提速。缓存根目录发现改为并行执行，逐条目子进程 fork 替换为 bash 参数展开，brew outdated 检查并发运行并带超时保护。
2. mo status：修复 APFS 磁盘容量显示不准确问题，gopsutil 在外部 APFS 卷上可能返回翻倍数值，现改为三层回退：Finder → diskutil APFS → 原始 statfs，Finder 探测失败结果缓存避免重复超时。
3. mo status：新增持续高 CPU 进程告警。超过阈值并持续达到设定窗口的进程会在界面中标记，可通过 --proc-cpu-threshold（默认 100%）和 --proc-cpu-window（默认 5 分钟）配置。
4. mo status：修复调整终端窗口大小时出现幽灵行的问题。
5. mo clean：修复未完成下载清理静默跳过含空格文件名的问题，同时跳过正在使用中的文件。
6. mo clean：默认保留 Mole 运行日志、tealdeer tldr 缓存和 Aerial 壁纸资源，不再在常规清理中删除。新增可选的 Docker 未使用数据清理。
7. mo clean：dry-run 预览按文件系统身份去重，别名路径和符号链接不再重复出现。Application Support 清理遵守用户白名单，系统 launch agent 受到明确保护。
8. mo purge：条目选择和确认界面现在显示完整路径，移除 60 字符硬截断，改为根据终端宽度智能压缩。大小计算并行执行，避免大型项目卡住菜单。
9. mo uninstall：修复应用清理中相对路径符号链接解析问题，改善 brew 卸载兜底一致性，新增 bundle ID 派生扩展残留文件检测。
10. macOS 更新检测 / sudo：更新检测改为直接解析 softwareupdate 输出，消除误报。sudo 凭证提示透传系统原生 PAM，不再硬编码 Password: 字符串。

V1.30.0 Razewing Ratha 🪽

Mole V1.30.0

Deep clean and optimize your Mac.

Changelog

1. mo clean: Hardened orphan app-data cleanup. Generic orphan cleanup now uses a 30-day inactivity window, and Claude VM bundle cleanup uses a dedicated 7-day window to reduce false positives while keeping cache cleanup responsive.
2. mo clean: Fixed Xcode DeviceSupport cleanup when version arrays are empty, preventing nounset exits in sparse or partially cleaned environments.
3. mo clean: Improved Application Support and project cache scanning on large directory trees, reducing stalls and keeping scans scoped to safer roots.
4. core: Added a stronger Perl timeout fallback for environments without timeout or gtimeout, improving cleanup reliability when external commands hang.
5. mo purge: Fixed empty menu option and artifact selection edge cases that could previously trigger unbound variable exits under set -u.
6. mo uninstall / mo optimize: Hardened LaunchServices refresh fallback. Missing lsregister no longer aborts the flow under set -e.

9. mo analyze / mo status: Fixed top-level file counting in JSON output and applied reliability-focused cleanup to status and network-related code paths.
10. docs / tests: Refreshed the security audit reference and expanded regression coverage for orphan cleanup, timeout fallback, brew uninstall flows, update gating, and missing lsregister fallback.

更新日志

1. mo clean：强化 orphan 应用数据清理策略。通用 orphan 清理现在使用 30 天静置窗口，Claude VM bundle 使用单独的 7 天窗口，在降低误删风险的同时保持缓存回收效率。
2. mo clean：修复 Xcode DeviceSupport 在版本数组为空时的清理异常，避免稀疏或部分清理环境下触发 nounset 退出。
3. mo clean：优化大目录场景下的 Application Support 与项目缓存扫描逻辑，降低卡顿风险，并将扫描范围收敛到更安全的根路径。
