Terms
Last updated September 15, 2026
Cruftless is pre-release software for macOS. It is a local tool for inspecting and permanently removing selected Xcode and CoreSimulator storage. These terms explain the project’s present distribution and do not replace the licence that accompanies its source code.
Source licence controls
Cruftless is available under the MIT License. The copy of that licence distributed with the source code governs your rights to use, copy, modify, and distribute the software. If these page terms conflict with that licence, the MIT License controls.
Pre-release status and installation
Cruftless is not currently distributed as a signed standalone app or through Homebrew. The project page’s Homebrew notice is informational only; it is not an offer of an installer. Building and running the source is your decision and responsibility.
Permanent removal
Cruftless is intentionally a destructive tool. It asks you to review an action before permanent deletion, but you remain responsible for deciding whether an item is safe for your work to remove. In particular, archives, simulator content, toolchains, caches, and build artifacts may have consequences that matter to you even when the app explains them. Keep backups of anything you may need.
No warranty
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Cruftless is provided “as is,” without warranty of any kind. The MIT License includes the full warranty disclaimer and limitation of liability. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot legally be limited.
Third-party software and services
Cruftless interacts with macOS, Xcode, and CoreSimulator components that are provided by Apple. Their availability and behavior are outside the project’s control. Any third-party materials identified in the source repository remain subject to their applicable terms and notices.
Changes and contact
These terms may be updated as Cruftless’s distribution changes. The current text will be published here with an updated date. Questions about the project can be sent to support@danmunoz.com.
