I Built MacDevTools: A One-Command Toolkit for Cleaning Caches, Diagnosing Networks, and Maintaining macOS Dev Environments
If you do development on macOS, your machine slowly collects a lot of invisible trash:
package manager caches (brew, pip, npm, cargo, etc.)
build leftovers (Xcode, Gradle, Maven)
large logs and temporary files
stale containers, images, and artifacts
I got tired of switching between dozens of commands and scripts, so I built MacDevTools — a terminal toolkit that gives me a single entrypoint for maintenance and diagnostics.
Why I built this
Most existing CLI tools are great at one thing:
process monitor
disk usage analyzer
network diagnostics
package updates
But in real workflows, I needed an opinionated daily toolkit that combines these tasks and keeps command syntax simple.
My goal with MacDevTools is straightforward:
one command to start (tool)
one command per task (tool brew, tool disk, tool ssl github.com, etc.)
one menu
