Overview

Dev Janitor helps keep a local development machine under control. It focuses on the files, caches, services, and configuration drift that accumulate during everyday work.

Features

Cleanup

• Scan project directories for common development artifacts such as node_modules, target, logs, caches, and temporary files.
• Detect leftovers from AI coding tools such as Aider, Cursor, Copilot, and OpenCode.
• Review and remove AI chat history and debug files on a per-project basis.

Tool Management

• Inspect installed tools across Node, Python, Rust, Go, and related ecosystems.
• Check versions and update common global packages.
• Manage AI CLI tools from one interface.

Security Scan

• Check for risky local tool configurations and known vulnerable setups.
• Flag ports that should usually listen on localhost only.
• Detect API keys stored in common configuration files.
• Inspect MCP server configurations for patterns that can lead to credential exposure or SSRF.

System Utilities

• Inspect long-running development processes.
• Find which process is using a specific port.
• Review PATH and shell configuration issues.
