## Runtime Context
Before scanning, load:
1. **Preferences**: `cat ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.claude/plugins/data/ops-ops-marketplace}/preferences.json` — read `timezone` for timestamps
# OPS > SPEEDUP — System Optimizer
## Architecture
The `bin/ops-speedup` binary is the single source of truth for probes AND actions. This skill's job is to:
1. Call the binary with the right flags based on user intent
2. Parse the JSON
3. Present a health score + cleanup report
4. Confirm destructive actions per plugin Rule 5
5. Invoke the binary's clean/deep/aggressive modes to execute
## CLI Reference — `bin/ops-speedup`
| Command | Purpose | Side effects |
|---------|---------|--------------|
| `ops-speedup` | Visual banner + hardware summary | None |
| `ops-speedup --json` | Quick JSON diagnostics (disk/mem/net only) | None |
| `ops-speedup --scan` | Full parallel probe: disk + mem + CPU hogs + power hogs + GPU/ANE + startup | None |
| `ops-speedup --clean` | Safe cleanup: caches, tmp, logs, demote daemons, DNS flush, kernel tune | Non-destructive |
| `ops-speedup --deep` | `--clean` + Trash, DerivedData, simulators, animation cuts, launch-agent kill | Removes files |
| `ops-speedup --aggressive` | `--deep` + unload launch agents, docker `--volumes`, stale `node_modules` (>14d), TCP BBR | Potentially breaking — confirm first |
All modes:
- Auto-detect OS (macOS / Linux / WSL / Windows) and dispatch OS-specific ops
- Idempotent — skip DerivedData/Metro/journal if last run was <1h ago
- Write telemetry to `~/.ops-speedup/history.jsonl`
- Only raise kernel tuning parameters, never lower
- Protected processes list blocks killing of shells, IDEs, daemons
## OS-specific capabilities
| Capability | macOS | Linux | WSL | Windows |
|------------|-------|-------|-----|---------|
| Disk reclaimable scan | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | limited |
| Memory + swap | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | limited |
| CPU hog kill | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | — |
| Power/Energy Impact | ✓ (`top -stats power`) | ✓ (`powertop`) | — | — |
| GPU/Neural Engine | ✓ (`powermetrics`) | ✓ (`nvidia-smi`) | — | — |
| Launch agent offenders | ✓ | — | — | — |
| systemd unit masking | — | ✓ | ✓ | — |
| E-core demotion | ✓ (`taskpolicy -b`) | ✓ (`renice`+`ionice`) | ✓ | — |
| UI animation cuts | ✓ | — | — | — |
| Kernel tune (vnodes/somaxconn) | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | — |
| TCP BBR | — | ✓ (aggressive) | ✓ (aggressive) | — |
| DNS flush | ✓ (dscacheutil) | ✓ (resolved) | ✓ (via Windows) | — |
| Memory purge | ✓ (`purge`) | ✓ (drop_caches) | ✓ | — |
| Stale build dir prune (>14d) | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ | — |
## Phase 1 — Visual header
```!
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-speedup 2>/dev/null || echo "SCAN_FAILED"
```
## Phase 2 — Full diagnostic scan (parallel, all probes)
```!
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-speedup --scan 2>/dev/null || echo '{}'
```
The binary already runs all probes in parallel. Do NOT add additional serial probe calls from this skill — they will duplicate work that's already in the JSON output.
## Phase 3 — Health score + cleanup report
Parse the JSON and render:
```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
OPS > SYSTEM SPEEDUP — [os] [os_version] [chip]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
HEALTH SCORE: [0-100] / 100 [████████░░ 80%]
DISK RECLAIMABLE
────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Docker reclaimable [N] MB ✓ safe
Metal shader cache [N] MB ✓ safe

Logs [N] MB ✓ safe

────────────────────────────────────────────────────
TOTAL RECLAIMABLE: [N] GB

```
**Health score calculation:**
- Start at 100
- Disk > 90% used: -20
- Disk > 80% used: -10
- RAM pressure < 20% free: -15
- RAM pressure < 40% free: -5
- Swap > 1GB: -10
- DNS > 100ms: -5
- > 10 launch agents (macOS) or > 3 failed systemd units (Linux): -5
- > 5GB reclaimable: -10
- > 10GB reclaimable: -20
## Phase 4 — Present cleanup choice (max 4 options per AskUserQuestion)
AskUserQuestion call 1 — Cleanup scope:
```
[Quick — caches, tmp, logs, DNS flush (~[N] GB)]
[Deep — + Trash, DerivedData, simulators, animation cuts (~[N] GB)]
[Aggressive — + launch-agent unload, stale node_modules, docker volumes (~[N] GB)]
[More options...]
```
AskUserQuestion call 2 (only if "More options..."):
```
[Custom — pick categories]
[Memory — kill top RAM hogs]
[Startup / Network / Skip...]
```
AskUserQuestion call 3 (only if "Startup / Network / Skip..."):
```
[Startup — review & disable launch agents / systemd units]
[Network — flush DNS, tune TCP, BBR (aggressive)]
[Skip — just show the report]
```
## Phase 5 — Confirm destructive actions per Rule 5
Per plugin Rule 5, destructive actions require explicit per-action confirmation. Before running `--aggressive`:
```
About to run AGGRESSIVE cleanup. Each item is destructive:
• Unload launch agents: [list]
• Docker volume prune (may delete unmounted volumes): [N] MB
• Stale node_modules (>14 days): [list of paths]
• TCP congestion control → BBR (Linux only)
[Proceed with all] [Pick categories] [Cancel]
```
If "Pick categories", batch per Rule 1 (max 4 options per `AskUserQuestion`).
## Phase 6 — Execute
Invoke the binary directly — it handles OS detection and dispatch:
```bash
# Quick clean
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-speedup --clean
# Deep clean
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-speedup --deep
# Aggressive (after confirmation)
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/bin/ops-speedup --aggressive
```
**Memory hog killing (option 5 from Phase 4):**
Top processes are already in the scan JSON (`cpu_hogs` / `power_hogs`). Present them in paginated `AskUserQuestion` calls (max 3 processes + `[More...]` per page, final page has `[Kill selected]` + `[Skip]`).
**NEVER kill**: kernel_task, launchd, WindowServer, loginwindow, Finder, Dock, systemd, init, shells (bash/zsh/fish), tmux, IDE processes (Cursor/Comet/Code), Claude, node, python, Xcode. The binary's PROTECTED_RE regex blocks these automatically.
## Phase 7 — Results
After cleanup, re-scan and diff:
```
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
OPS > CLEANUP COMPLETE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Reclaimed: [N] GB
Disk free: [before] GB → [after] GB
RAM free: [before] MB → [after] MB
Swap: [before] MB → [after] MB
Health: [before]/100 → [after]/100
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
History: ~/.ops-speedup/history.jsonl
```
If user came from `/ops:dash`, offer `b) Back to dashboard`.
## Mode shortcuts
If `$ARGUMENTS` is:
- `scan` or empty — Phase 1-3 only (report, no cleanup)
- `clean` — run `ops-speedup --clean` automatically (safe)
- `deep` — run `ops-speedup --deep` automatically (after 1 confirmation)
- `auto` — run `ops-speedup --clean` automatically, print results
- `aggressive` — run `ops-speedup --aggressive` after per-item confirmations
## Trend analysis
`~/.ops-speedup/history.jsonl` is append-only. For trend questions ("is my disk filling up?", "is swap growing over time?"), read + graph:
```bash
tail -30 ~/.ops-speedup/history.jsonl | jq -r '[.ts, .ram_free_mb, .swap_mb, .disk_pct] | @tsv'
```
