Later
Wanted, not scheduled yet. Tell us what you would use most.
Docker images and volumes
The other place old projects hide gigabytes.
Editor recents
Use VS Code, Cursor, Xcode and Android Studio recent projects as one more sign of life.
More ecosystems
.terraform, .tox, .expo, .angular cache, Elixir _build and deps, Haskell .stack-work, zig-cache.
Scheduled Clean All Safe
Sweep Safe projects automatically on a schedule you choose, with a summary afterwards.
Not planned
Things we have decided not to build, and why.
A Mac App Store version
The App Store sandbox can't walk your project folders or ask git what it tracks, so Sweep is sold directly.
A subscription
Sweep is a one-time purchase, and version 1 updates are included.
Accounts or cloud sync
Sweep runs entirely on your Mac. Nothing to sign up for, and scans never leave it.
Touching your source
Sweep only removes folders your tools can recreate, never code, lockfiles, .env files or .git.
