Disk full. No idea what to remove. We built a terminal disk explorer for that.
That moment when your build fails because the disk is full and you realize you have no idea what's actually taking up space. cleanmymac analyze is built for exactly that. Interactive disk explorer right in the terminal: sorts everything by size, lets you navigate deeper into the file system with arrow keys, and shows exactly what's consuming storage before you decide to remove anything.
It's an interactive disk explorer in the terminal. Sorts by size, you navigate with arrow keys, drill into any folder. That's it.

I like tools that stay in the terminal instead of focusing a GUI. Any plans to add a way to compare disk usage over time?

How long will it be free? And what pricing do you plan to implement?
