- Developer cocktailpeanut details Pinokio Disk Saver, a file-system-based disk cleanup tool that continuously discovers duplicate files, tracks file states, and supports one-click rollback.
- A user reports having already used DaisyDisk and asked Codex to find deletable files, yet Pinokio Disk Saver still uncovered 26GB to delete.
- The author argues one-off AI coding assistants (Codex/Claude) can't reliably dedupe — the job needs a dedicated, resident file management system with memory and monitoring.
