Counts unlabeled, assigned, unassigned, milestoned, demilestoned, locked, unlocked over the last 12 months. These are issue and pull request events that require triage or write permission. Commits and code review are not counted. labeled and renamed are excluded because GitHub issue forms record the issue author as the actor. Figures from October 18, 2026. This count is not comparable across projects: each project's automation decides which of these events a person emits. How this is counted.

Detailed Description

Mole is a command-line tool and native macOS application that cleans, uninstalls, analyzes, optimizes, and monitors Mac systems.

The tool addresses the problem of managing Mac storage and system health by providing capabilities to identify and remove unnecessary files, uninstall applications cleanly, analyze disk usage patterns, optimize system performance, and monitor ongoing system metrics. It operates through both a command-line interface for automation and scripting, and a native macOS application for interactive use, giving users flexibility in how they interact with their system maintenance tasks.

Mole suits developers and Mac users who want direct control over system cleanup without relying on closed-source commercial alternatives. It works well for those comfortable with command-line tools who need scriptable system maintenance, as well as users preferring a graphical interface through the native app. The project positions itself as a free, open-source alternative to commercial Mac cleaning and optimization software.

The project maintains active development with regular commits addressing bug fixes and feature improvements. The codebase shows consistent refinement of existing functionality rather than major architectural shifts. Development activity demonstrates responsiveness to user-reported issues and steady incremental progress on the tool's capabilities.
