From claude-mac-guardian
This skill should be used when the user asks to "check disk usage", "is my drive full", "what's using my disk", "disk space", "free up space", or mentions low storage. Reports free space, largest directories, caches, Time Machine local snapshots, Xcode simulator footprint, and node_modules sizes, then writes a JSON result to ~/.mac-guardian/data/.

1. Per-volume free space — df -h. Filter to apfs and hfs volumes. For each volume:
/ free ≥ 20 GB or ≥ 15%: ok./ free 10–20 GB or 5–15%: info./ free 5–10 GB or 2–5%: warn./ free < 5 GB or < 2%: critical.2. Top 20 home directories by size — du -shx ~/* 2>/dev/null | sort -rh | head -20. Record as raw. Individual dirs ≥ 50 GB get an info finding.
3. Library caches — du -shx ~/Library/Caches 2>/dev/null. If ≥ 20 GB, info "Library caches at ".
4. System / user log sizes — du -shx ~/Library/Logs /private/var/log 2>/dev/null. Record in raw.
5. Time Machine local snapshots — tmutil listlocalsnapshots / 2>/dev/null. Report the count. ≥ 10 snapshots: info.
6. Xcode / iOS simulator footprint — du -shx ~/Library/Developer/CoreSimulator/Devices ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/iOS\ DeviceSupport 2>/dev/null. Sum ≥ 30 GB: info. Sum ≥ 100 GB: warn.
7. node_modules across common dev roots (optional and guarded) — only run when the user's home has a Develop/ or Projects/ or code/ directory: find ~/Develop ~/Projects ~/code -type d -name node_modules -maxdepth 6 -prune -exec du -shx {} + 2>/dev/null | sort -rh | head -20. Guard this with a soft timeout (use timeout 60s if gtimeout or coreutils timeout is available; otherwise include only if find completes within reason, and skip with an info finding "skipped — search would take too long" if not).
8. Large Downloads / Trash — du -shx ~/Downloads ~/.Trash 2>/dev/null. Each ≥ 10 GB: info.
Standard envelope. Write to ~/.mac-guardian/data/disk-usage-<ISOdate>.json.
Top-level severity = max across all checks. Summary example: "44 GB free on / (warn). Biggest: ~/Library/Caches 38 GB, DerivedData 27 GB."
