Your tools leave gigabytes behind. PurgeKit knows where.

Developer folders grow quietly: build caches, simulators, old toolchains, model files. PurgeKit finds them, says what each one is and whether it's safe to rebuild, and removes it the right way. Where a tool has its own clean-up command — like Docker or Xcode's simulator tool — PurgeKit uses it instead of deleting files underneath it. The Developer section only appears on Macs that have developer tools.

Safe by default

Caches can always be rebuilt, so PurgeKit marks them Safe. Things you might still need — like an archive you could ship again — are marked Review. Cleaned caches wait in the Restore Bin, so a mistake there is easy to put right. Clean-ups run through a tool's own command, like Docker's, are permanent.
