Disk hygiene for the agentic era.
Finds what is really eating your drive, then removes only what is provably safe.


Why this exists

AI agents work in parallel. Each task gets its own git worktree with its own full Gradle or Xcode build. Test runs clone simulators. Daemons, emulators and simulators stay up until memory spills into swap, and swap lives on the same disk.

On one real 1TB machine, free space went from **79G to 2.5G in twenty minutes**. The cause wasn't `~/Library/Caches`:

  • 17G of swap from booted simulators, emulators and idle daemons (kernel_task had written 643GB)
  • 37 forgotten agent worktrees nested in repo/.claude/worktrees/, about 1 to 6G each
  • A staged macOS update whose snapshots pinned every block deleted since

A generic "clear your caches" script finds none of that. disk-jockey checks for it first.

Quick start

git clone https://github.com/bmcreations/disk-jockey ~/.claude/skills/disk-jockey

Then tell your agent *"my disk is full"*, or drive it yourself:

~/.claude/skills/disk-jockey/
