Free Disk Space
Investigate first. Delete only regenerable data the user has authorized.
Safety
- Never inspect, delete, or modify the data of the IDE or agent you're running
inside — its application-support dir, caches, globalStorage, databases, extensions, or logs — unless the user explicitly names it as a cleanup target. On macOS that lives under ~/Library/Application Support/<app>/ (e.g. .../Cursor/).
- Never delete browser history, extensions, cookies, credentials, local
storage, IndexedDB, bookmarks, passwords, or user-created files.
- Ask before destructive cleanup such as deleting Docker images, containers,
volumes, or virtual disks.
Workflow
- Record current usage from the macOS data volume:
``bash df -h /System/Volumes/Data ``
- Find the largest consumers before deleting anything. Use
du, package
manager diagnostics, and application-specific storage commands. Do not descend into protected agent/IDE data.
- Explain what is large, whether it is regenerable, and the expected impact.
- Clean only safe targets:
- contents of ~/Library/Caches/ - unused package-manager cache entries, such as pnpm store prune - known browser model/GPU caches, never browser profile data
- For sparse files such as Docker's virtual disk, report actual disk use from
du, not apparent size from ls.
- Record usage again and report space freed.
Do not represent the sealed / system volume as the Mac's usable data-volume capacity.
