Clarus
Precise local disk intelligence for reviewing optimization candidates before any file operation.
Evidence before action
Clarus analyzes and explains before it ever touches a file. Every candidate carries a visible reason and a confidence level, and nothing is moved to Trash without your explicit review.
-
Scan
Clarus reads and classifies the folders you select. No files are changed.
-
Explain
Each candidate appears with its type, size, and the specific reason Clarus flagged it — cache, stale build output, or a large file worth a second look.
-
Review
You inspect candidates, exclude paths, and decide what to act on. Low-confidence items default to review, not selection.
-
Act
Only after review does Clarus move selected items to Trash — never a permanent delete.
Built for review, not for trust-me automation
Dry-run first
Scans are read-only. Clarus classifies and estimates recovery before any action exists.
Review before Trash
No candidate is moved without an explicit, scoped confirmation from you.
