# Mac YOLO Safeguards (macyolosafeguards.io) — Generative Engine Optimization (llms.txt)
> Mac YOLO Safeguards is a native macOS Apple Silicon menu-bar HUD, 5-Pillar Smart Care engine, and runtime circuit breaker that stops Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and zombie MCP server swarms from freezing your Mac or burning 100+ GB of RAM and disk.

Canonical URL: https://macyolosafeguards.io/
GitHub Release (Apple Notarized v1.0.0): https://github.com/IgorGanapolsky/mac-yolo-safeguards/releases/tag/v1.0.0

## Core Capabilities
- **Runaway Agent & MCP Reaper**: Intercepts `claude-code#11315` (129 GB RAM leak), `claude-code#67433` (500 MB/min idle RSS leak), and orphaned `PPID=1` stdio MCP server swarms in <1s.
- **Hard-Whitelisted Session Protection**: Never kills active `herdr`, `tmux`, `WindowServer`, `Finder`, or foreground IDE workspaces (exit code 3 protected).
- **13-Category Clean AI Waste Engine**: Reclaims 50+ GB of untracked `/private/tmp/claude-*` logs, orphaned iOS/macOS Simulator runtimes, and stale agent caches in 1 click.
- **Native macOS Translucent Liquid Glass HUD**: Real-time menu-bar pill (`CPU% · RAM%`) and 2x3 Bento HUD compiled natively for Apple Silicon (`com.iganapolsky.macyolosafeguards`, Apple Developer Team ID `9GMM26JC5X`).
- **Built-In MCP Server (`bin/mac-yolo-mcp`)**: Exposes live macOS health, disk smart scan, simulator reaper, and $10/mo token budget gates directly to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and OMP.
