Install and configure the mac-optimize disk and shell hygiene toolset on a macOS machine, including the launchd automation (a low-disk watcher, a memory-pressure watcher, and a weekly reclaim) and optionally moving a 1Password service-account token out of a cleartext dotfile into the login Keychain. Use when setting up a new Mac, when the user says "install mac-optimize", "set up disk automation", or "set up the disk cleanup tools", or when uninstalling them.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# mac-optimize-setup Install the mac-optimize tooling (`diskreport`, `mac-reclaim`, `worktree-audit`, `diskguard`, `memguard`) and its launchd automation onto a Mac. ## Install From a checkout of the repo: ``` git pull # if already cloned make install ``` `install.sh` is idempotent. It copies `bin/*` to `~/.local/bin` (make sure that's on `PATH`), installs the three launchd plists to `~/Library/LaunchAgents`, and (re)loads them. ## Verify ``` launchctl list | grep mac-optimize # expect com.mac-optimize.diskguard, .memguard, and .mac-reclaim diskreport # confirm the tools resolve on PATH ``` `diskguard` runs at login and every 3 hours; if free space drops below 20 GB it runs a safe reclaim and posts a notification (urgent notice, no auto-delete, below 10 GB). `memguard` runs at login and every 5 minutes; it watches the kernel memory-pressure level and free RAM and, when memory is tight, posts a notification naming the largest process (it never kills or deletes anything). `mac-reclaim` runs a safe reclaim weekly. …

How to install
mdr add kylebrodeur/mac-optimize/mac-optimize-setup@sha256:23a20863154802ccThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
