macOS Toolkit
Macos Toolkit v2.0.0 — a utility toolkit for managing, analyzing, converting, and processing data from the command line. Supports run, check, convert, analyze, generate, preview, batch, compare, export, config, status, and report operations — all tracked with timestamped entries stored locally.

Data Storage
All data is stored in ~/.local/share/macos-toolkit/:
- Each command type writes to its own
.log file (e.g., run.log, check.log, convert.log)
- Entries are timestamped in
YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM|<value> format
- A unified
history.log tracks all actions across command types
- Export files are written to the same directory as
export.json, export.csv, or export.txt
Requirements
- Bash 4+ with
set -euo pipefail
- Standard Unix utilities (
date, wc, du, tail, grep, sed, cat)
- No external dependencies — works out of the box on Linux and macOS
When to Use
- System checks and diagnostics — use
check and analyze to record system health checks, diagnostic results, and analysis findings on your Mac
- File conversion tracking — log
convert operations when batch-converting file formats, encoding, or data transformations
- Configuration management — use
config to track system configuration changes and status to record current system states for auditing
- Batch processing workflows — record
batch and generate entries to document automated processing pipelines and their outputs
- Reporting and export — use
report to log generated reports and export accumulated data to JSON, CSV, or TXT for sharing or archival
Examples
macos-toolkit check "Homebrew packages up to date, 142 installed"
macos-toolkit convert "Converted 50 HEIC photos to JPEG format"
macos-toolkit analyze "SSD: 234GB used / 500GB total, 47% capacity"
macos-toolkit batch "Resized 200 images to 1080p for web deployment"
macos-toolkit search "disk"
macos-toolkit export json
macos-toolkit stats
Output
All commands print results to stdout. Each recording command confirms the save and shows the total entry count for that category. Redirect output to a file with:
macos-toolkit stats > report.txt
Configuration
Set the DATA_DIR inside the script or modify the default path ~/.local/share/macos-toolkit/ to change where data is stored.
