# My Mac Refresher
This is a work-in-progress script that aims to update and clean up
various first and third-party software on my Mac.
It is targeted toward the latest release of macOS, which is currently macOS 15
Sequoia.
It is intended for myself and other advanced users with good judgement.
## Instructions
- You probably want [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) installed.
- Clone this repo.
- Audit the `clean.sh` script, because you shouldn't run scripts you download
off the Internet blindly.
- Comment out the functions you don't care about.
- `chmod +x clean.sh`
- `./clean.sh`
## TODO
- Run Software Updates
- Empty Trash
- Look for old IPSWs
- Check for Apple Intelligence status and space usage, but don't make changes.
- And more
## NOT TODO
- Stuff that isn't really documented by Apple and could have unintended results
at any given time. Eg. messing with BootCache.playlist
- kextcache rebuilds unless someone can convince me of pretty solid reasons with
backing documentation.
- update_dyld_shared_cache, because it was deprecated with macOS 11.
