Automatically clean unnecessary system and application logs every week using a lightweight macOS LaunchDaemon automation tool.
Weekly Log Cleaner for macOS is a lightweight system maintenance automation tool designed to automatically remove old log files from macOS systems. Over time, macOS and many installed applications generate large numbers of log files which can accumulate and consume valuable disk space. This tool installs a LaunchDaemon that runs once per week and automatically scans configured log directories such as system logs, application logs, and custom directories defined by the user. Old log files exceeding the defined retention period are safely removed to maintain optimal system performance. The package includes a LaunchDaemon configuration file (.plist), a shell automation script responsible for the cleaning process, a macOS installer package for quick installation, and a log retention configuration file allowing administrators to define custom cleanup rules. Weekly Log Cleaner is especially useful for developers, DevOps engineers, automation specialists, and macOS administrators who want to maintain clean systems without performing manual maintenance.
