Coming soon

Devbroom is coming soon.

Install it, pick your folders, start the first scan. Scanning only reads; unless you turn on Automatic upkeep, nothing on disk changes until you confirm. Devbroom is free; Pro features are on for the first 14 days.

Only to tell you when Devbroom is out. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link.

Setup

Ready in three steps.

After setup Devbroom shows everything it finds as bubbles. Unless you turn on Automatic upkeep, it touches none of them without your OK.

01

Drag to Applications

Open the .dmg you downloaded, drag Devbroom to the Applications folder and open it from there.

02

Pick your folders

Choose the folders where your projects live. Devbroom already knows the agents' own folders; you don't need to add them.

03

Grant access if needed

If a folder macOS protects, such as Desktop or Documents, can't be read, Devbroom tells you and takes you to Full Disk Access in System Settings.

Command line

The same scan in the terminal.

devbroom reaches the same verdicts as the app and prints the same reasons; its scan changes nothing. devbroom clean shows what's Ready first, then moves it to the Trash. Nothing extra to install, it comes inside the app: press “Link devbroom” in Settings › Agents and integrations and it's linked into ~/.local/bin.

Updates

Devbroom checks for new versions by itself: once, 8 seconds after launch, and when you press “Check now” in Settings › General. It reads the latest.json file we publish and sends nothing about your Mac or your scan. If there's a new version it asks you, and when you press “Install” its signature is checked and it's installed. The command line tool lives inside the app, so it updates with it.

What you install runs only on your Mac.Devbroom needs no account and sends no telemetry. It goes online only to check for updates and, if you entered a Pro license, to check the license.
