What is Mole?

Mole is an open source macOS command line utility that combines disk cleanup, app uninstallation, disk usage analysis, and system health monitoring in a single binary.

It scans for caches, logs, temporary files, and browser leftovers, with options such as dry run previews and whitelists to help control what is removed. Its uninstaller removes apps along with related artifacts like launch agents, preferences, caches, and other residual files.

Mole also includes a disk explorer for finding large files, optimization tasks that rebuild caches and refresh system services, and a live terminal dashboard for CPU, GPU, memory, disk, and network statistics, with an interactive menu and dedicated subcommands for each function.
