What This Skill Does

Audits a Homebrew installation on macOS for outdated packages, unused downloads, and configuration issues. Runs a single script combining brew outdated, cleanup dry-run, and brew doctor checks. Outputs a summary of total formulae and cask counts.

Combines outdated listing, cleanup estimates, and brew doctor diagnostics into one command instead of running three separate brew commands and interpreting their output manually.

When to Use It

  • Finding which packages need updates before a macOS upgrade
  • Estimating disk space recoverable from old Homebrew downloads
  • Diagnosing broken symlinks or permission errors after a system update
  • Checking cask versions after returning to a development machine
  • Running a monthly maintenance check on installed formulae and casks
