CleanDeck is the Mac cleaner you can question. It examines your Mac, explains what it finds, and shows the evidence behind every answer — while deletion stays where it belongs: with you.

You asked
Why is this tool protected?
CleanDeck
This is the tool's main location. It contains sessions, history, and working state, so the root remains Protected.

01 / The inversion
Cleaning is a decision,
not a button.
Most cleaners reduce the decision to a large number, a green button, and a request for faith. What was found? Why is it safe to remove? What happens if the cleaner is wrong? The button doesn't say.
CleanDeck starts where the button stops. Before anything moves, it shows you what it found, why it was classified that way, and what it would do — in plain language, with the evidence attached.

No cleanup action offered — your call.
It shows what it found, why,
and refuses to act. You decide.
01
Found
The scan observes what is actually on your Mac.
02
Explained
Every classification comes with its basis.
03
You decide
No explanation can approve its own action.
02 / The separation
The mind grows.
CleanDeck's intelligence is designed to keep getting better: to understand more of what lives on a Mac, explain it more clearly, and answer harder questions.
Permanent by design
The hands don't.
It can propose and explain. It cannot move a file or approve its own suggestion. A smarter CleanDeck never means a more dangerous one.
Your confirmationNo file moves without it.
The TrashEvery removal stays reversible until you empty it.
The evidenceEvery answer shows what it rests on.
The recordEvery answer leaves a verifiable production record.
03 / Question it
Ask it why.
Then check its work.
An answer you can't question is just a prettier button. CleanDeck keeps the answer and the evidence in the same view.

Response verified against this sealed evidence
When CleanDeck cannot support an answer with evidence, it says what it cannot establish instead of guessing.
04 / Uncertainty
Uncertainty is not permission.
Important data stays Protected. Uncertain data stops at Review. Neither becomes a cleanup action by confidence alone.
The evidence stops here.
When the classification is uncertain, CleanDeck presents the choice instead of inventing certainty.
Recognized as important.
Settings, sessions, models, keys, and databases stay outside standard cleanup.
05 / Built for people who build
It knows work
when it sees it.
To a conventional cleaner, development tools are just gigabytes. CleanDeck sees state and context: tools, settings, sessions, and downloaded models forming a working system.
Your machine's memory of your work is not junk.
