# macOS Resource Optimizer

Production-ready system optimization with 40+ specialized agents for comprehensive macOS resource management.

## Quick Reference

**What is macOS Resource Optimizer?**
Real-world macOS optimization framework with 40+ specialized agents executing in parallel:
- **coordinator.py**: 40-agent orchestrator (6 phases, 4-5s execution)
- **40+ specialized agents**: Memory, disk, browser, Docker, developer tools
- **Implementation**: UV scripts (PEP 723) + Bash delegation via MoAI agents

**Main Orchestrator**:

| Script | Purpose | Agents | Execution Time |
|--------|---------|--------|----------------|
| `coordinator.py` | 40-agent parallel orchestrator | 40 agents (6 phases) | 4-5s |

**6 Phases (coordinator.py)**:
1. **Disk Cleanup** (15 agents): Python/Node zombies, Browser helpers, Network leaks, Docker containers
2. **RAM Optimization** (9 agents): Memory pressure, App profiler, Browser tabs, Electron apps
3. **Developer Cache** (5 agents): Time Machine, Xcode, Build caches, Docker cleanup
4. **Advanced Memory** (4 agents): Swap optimizer, WindowServer, Spotlight, Memory leaks
5. **Browser Deep Cleanup** (3 agents): Chrome, Safari, Firefox optimizers
6. **App & System** (3 agents): Messaging apps, VSCode, DNS/Network

**Performance**:
- Sequential: 40 × 1.0s = 40s (estimated per agent)
- Parallel (6 phases): 4-5s total (8× faster than sequential)
- Real-world: 4-7s depending on system state and cache availability
- With MetricsCache (TTL 30s): ~2-3s on repeated calls

## Usage

### 1. Full System Optimization (40 agents)

```bash
# Execute all 40 agents in 6 parallel phases
uv run scripts/coordinator.py

# JSON output
uv run scripts/coordinator.py --json
```

### 2. Individual Agents

```bash
# Memory pressure detector
uv run scripts/agent_memory_pressure_detector.py

# Browser tab manager
uv run scripts/agent_browser_tab_manager.py

# Docker cleanup
uv run scripts/agent_docker_deep_cleanup.py --dry-run
```

### 3. Utility Scripts

```bash
# Kill zombie processes
uv run scripts/kill_zombies_parallel.py

# Report memory usage
uv run scripts/report_memory.py

# Analyze running processes
uv run scripts/analyze_processes.py --json
```

## MoAI Integration

### Manager Agents

**manager-resource-coordinator.md**:
```python
# Execute full 40-agent orchestration
result = Bash("uv run .claude/skills/macos-resource-optimizer/scripts/coordinator.py --json")
data = json.loads(result.stdout)

# Parse results by phase
phase1_results = data["phases"]["disk_cleanup"]
phase2_results = data["phases"]["ram_optimization"]

# Return aggregated recommendations
```

### Expert Agents

**expert-memory-optimizer.md**:
```python
# Execute memory-specific agents
result = Bash("uv run scripts/agent_memory_pressure_detector.py --json")
memory_data = json.loads(result.stdout)

# Generate recommendations based on memory analysis
```

### Implementation Details

**Execution Method**: UV Scripts (PEP 723)
```bash
#!/usr/bin/env uv run
# /// script
# requires-python = ">=3.11"
# dependencies = ["psutil", "pyyaml"]
# ///

import asyncio
import psutil

# Scripts run directly via: uv run script.py
# No Python virtual environment setup required
```

**Delegation Pattern**: Bash + Task()
```python
# Manager agent receives command
# Delegates to Bash tool: uv run .claude/skills/.../scripts/coordinator.py
# Coordinator spawns async tasks for 40 agents
# Results aggregated and returned
```

### Data Flow

```python
# coordinator.py executes agents
{
    "phases": {
        "disk_cleanup": {
            "agents_executed": 15,
            "duration": 2.1,
            "savings_gb": 5.3,
            "results": [...]
        },
        "ram_optimization": {
            "agents_executed": 9,
            "duration": 1.8,
            "memory_freed_gb": 2.1,
            "results": [...]
        },
        ...
    },
    "summary": {
        "total_agents": 40,
        "total_duration": 2.5,
        "total_savings_gb": 12.4,
        "total_memory_freed_gb": 4.2
    }
}
```

## Protected Apps

**Default protected apps** (from `config/cleanup-rules.json`):
- Claude Code
- Notion
- Slack
- Discord
- Mail
- Messages
- Ghostty

**Recommended additional protection** (for development environments):
- Node.js (active development processes)
- Apple Virtualization (system virtualization)
- VSCode/Cursor (development editors)
- Xcode (development tools)
- Docker Desktop (containerization)

**Customization**: Edit `config/cleanup-rules.json` to add/remove protected apps based on your workflow.

These apps are NEVER killed or suspended during optimization.
