A clean Mac. Free, forever.
Tokki Clean finds the junk other cleaners miss — caches, stale node_modules, Docker images, and the junk AI tools write. No license key, no subscription — completely free.

Cleans the junk AI tools write
Old cleaners chase browser caches. Tokki Clean knows the new mess: agent working data, editor render caches, and local model stores — sized, itemized, and one click from the Trash.
Exactly what to delete (and what to keep)
Step-by-step guides with the exact paths, sizes, and commands — for the junk AI dev tools and build systems leave behind.
Claude Code disk space
Claude Code can quietly use gigabytes in ~/.claude and its caches. Here's exactly where that space goes, what's safe to delete, and the auth/config files you must never touch.
Codex CLI cache
The OpenAI Codex CLI keeps sessions and artifacts under ~/.codex, which adds up over time. Here's what's there, what's safe to remove, and what to keep.
LM Studio models
LM Studio can leave model folders behind after an in-app delete, silently wasting tens of gigabytes. Here's where models live and how to clean up the leftovers.
Ollama models
Ollama models live in ~/.ollama/models and are often 5–15 GB each. Here's how to find, size, and safely remove the ones you don't use.
Hugging Face cache
Downloaded models and datasets pile up in ~/.cache/huggingface/hub. Here's how to size the cache and delete what you no longer need.
node_modules
Stale node_modules folders are usually the single biggest source of dev disk junk. Here's the safe one-liner to find and remove them — and how to target only the old ones.
Docker disk space
Docker Desktop keeps everything in a single Docker.raw disk image that doesn't shrink on its own. Here's how to actually reclaim the space after pruning.
Xcode storage
Xcode quietly accumulates gigabytes in DerivedData, Archives, simulators, and device support. Here's what's safe to delete and what to keep.
Cursor / VS Code cache
Cursor and VS Code build large caches under ~/Library that often show up as bloated 'System Data'. Here's what's safe to delete.
Developer disk-space hub
A developer's Mac hides gigabytes in build caches, dependencies, containers, and AI-tool junk. Here's the complete checklist — with exact paths — to reclaim it safely.
AI-tool junk
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Ollama, and LM Studio each write caches, transcripts, and model stores that quietly consume tens of gigabytes. Here's the full map.
Six tools, one tiny app
Clean
24 scan categories across AI tools, dev tools, apps, browsers, and user data — agent & editor caches, package-manager caches, logs, Xcode DerivedData, stale node_modules, iOS Simulators, Docker images, old installers — sorted by what's safest to remove.
Analyze
A squarified treemap of any folder — Home, Applications, or ~/Library. Drill down by size, reveal in Finder, and trash space hogs right from the map.
Apps
Every app with its real icon, size, and last-used date. Uninstall hunts down leftovers across 11 ~/Library areas — App Support, Caches, Preferences, Containers, Launch Agents, and more.
Optimize
One-tap macOS maintenance — rebuild Quick Look & Launch Services, flush DNS, run periodic scripts, audit login items — with admin tasks batched behind a single password prompt.
AI Sessions
Browse your Claude Code & Codex sessions by project, resume any in Warp, iTerm, Ghostty, or Terminal — plus a Projects doctor that scores your repos and flags .git / build bloat.
Status
Live CPU (per-core), memory, disk, network, battery, uptime, and top processes — plus free disk space right in your menu bar, even with the window closed.
Covers what people pay for, five times over
Cleanup, app uninstall, maintenance, and live status usually mean a stack of paid apps and a monthly bill. Tokki does the everyday jobs in one native app — and it's free.
No subscription. No upsell. One free download.
Careful by design
Show before remove
Every clean runs a dry-run first: itemized paths, byte counts, and skip reasons. You confirm; Tokki acts.
Trash by default
Cleans and uninstalls go to the macOS Trash. Permanent deletion is an explicit per-action toggle.
Refuse when unsure
Paths are re-validated against the scanner's own output, and a hard deny-list protects Documents, Pictures, .ssh, Keychains, Mail, and Photos.

Opening Tokki the first time
Tokki isn't notarized by Apple yet, so macOS shows a “can't be opened”warning the first time. It's safe — it runs entirely on your Mac. Here's how to open it.
- 1. Drag Tokki into Applications.
- 2. Right-click (or Control-click) the Tokki icon → Open → Open again.
- 3. After that, open it normally. macOS only asks once.
If macOS still won't open it, paste this in Terminal to clear the quarantine flag:
Then open Tokki normally.
Questions, answered
Is Tokki Clean really free?
Yes — completely free, with no license key, no account, no trial counter, and no subscription. Tokki Clean is funded by Tokki Earn (our opt-in ad marketplace), so the cleaner stays free for everyone.
Is it safe to delete the .claude folder?
Mostly. Tokki Clean safely clears Claude Code working data like ~/.claude/projects, ~/.claude/debug, and ~/Library/Caches/claude-cli-nodejs, but never touches your auth and config (~/.claude.json, settings.json, plugins/). Every clean shows an itemized preview first and goes to the Trash.
Where are Ollama models stored on a Mac, and can I delete them?
Ollama stores models in ~/.ollama/models, often several gigabytes each. Tokki Clean sizes them so you can reclaim space, and you can also remove individual models with `ollama rm <model>`.
Is it safe to delete Xcode DerivedData?
Yes. ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData is rebuildable cache — deleting it is safe and frees gigabytes; your next build is just slightly slower. Tokki Clean also finds old Archives, CoreSimulator data, and iOS DeviceSupport.
What does Tokki Clean remove that other cleaners miss?
The junk modern AI dev tools write: Claude Code transcripts, Codex CLI artifacts, Cursor/VS Code/Zed caches, Ollama and LM Studio model stores, and Hugging Face caches — plus stale node_modules, Docker images, and Xcode DerivedData.
Does Tokki Clean send my data anywhere?
No. Tokki Clean has no account, no analytics, and makes no network calls — it runs entirely on your Mac. A hard deny-list protects Documents, Pictures, .ssh, Keychains, Mail, and Photos.
