[mo] V1.53.0 — V1.53.0 Aware 👁️ #406

Description

@github-actions

Upstream mo released V1.53.0 on 2026-08-30.

Burrow drives mo at runtime, so a new engine release can change behaviour, flags, output format, or the minimum supported version.

Triage

  • New / renamed / removed subcommand or flag Burrow wraps?
  • Bump Burrow's pinned / minimum mo version?
  • Breaking change to any output the parser relies on?
  • New capability worth surfacing in the GUI or MCP tools?
  • Compat smoke-test against V1.53.0.

Mole

Deep clean and optimize your Mac.

Changelog

  1. Clean and Purge are faster without widening deletion scope: independent scans now run concurrently, stray home-level artifact folders such as node_modules are no longer mistaken for projects, and live container cache trees stay protected.
  2. Safety probe cancellation now stops the whole cleanup: if a live-cache or SQLite check times out or is interrupted, Mole preserves the current target, stops later cleanup sections, and returns the failure instead of continuing with partial evidence.
  3. Analyze and Status report fresher, clearer system state: Analyze shows the local Time Machine snapshot count and explains why snapshot-only space is excluded from directory totals; Status adds zombie process diagnostics and retains the last process sample as stale when a refresh fails.
  4. Everyday edges are quieter and clearer: CLT-only Macs no longer warn about a missing simctl, compressed menus keep the Space key hint, whitelist guidance accepts any path, and the x/text security update is included.

更新日志

  1. Clean 和 Purge 更快,但不会扩大删除范围:互不依赖的扫描现在可以并发执行;用户目录下误放的 node_modules 等构建产物不会再被当成项目;正在使用的容器缓存目录也会继续受到保护。
  2. 安全探测被取消时会停止整次清理:如果活跃缓存或 SQLite 检查超时、被中断,Mole 会保留当前目标,停止后续清理阶段,并返回失败,不会依据不完整证据继续执行。
  3. Analyze 和 Status 展示的系统状态更及时、更清楚:Analyze 会显示本地 Time Machine 快照数量,并说明为何目录统计不包含仅由快照占用的空间;Status 新增僵尸进程诊断,完整刷新失败时会保留上一份进程数据并标记为过期。
  4. 日常使用中的细节更安静、更明确:仅安装 Command Line Tools 的 Mac 不再提示缺少 simctl,紧凑菜单会保留 Space 键提示,白名单说明支持任意路径,同时包含 x/text 安全更新。

Mole Mac App

Prefer a GUI? Mole Mac App brings cleaning, app management, maintenance, disk analysis, and live system status into one native app, with review before deletion and a customizable menu bar HUD. It is $19 once, with lifetime updates and a 14-day refund. Download and try it. The CLI stays free and open source.

Handles and issue refs above are quoted as code on purpose, so mirroring upstream notes here never notifies upstream contributors. Read them at the source.
