The only cleaner that can undo itself
Automatic filesystem snapshots before every risky clean. Ed25519-grade peace of mind, copy-on-write cheap.
Zero cost
APFS / btrfs / ZFS snapshots use copy-on-write. Creating one takes a few milliseconds and zero disk, until you change something.
Works everywhere developers work
macOS (APFS), Linux with btrfs, Linux with ZFS. Falls back gracefully on systems without snapshot support.
Retention you control
Keep the last N snapshots automatically. Prune anytime with aiclean restore --prune 5.
How it works
- 1
You run aiclean clean
Any clean that includes medium- or high-risk items triggers a pre-clean snapshot. For Pro users, this is automatic — no flags, no config.
- 2
aiclean detects your filesystem
It picks the right backend: tmutil on macOS, btrfs subvolume snapshot on btrfs, zfs snapshot on ZFS.
- 3
The clean proceeds
Your caches get deleted. If the clean goes exactly as planned, you ignore the snapshot — it costs you nothing.
- 4
If you regret it, roll back
aiclean restore --last restores the snapshot. On btrfs/ZFS this is automatic; on macOS we guide you through the recovery step.
