Author Tw93 announced on X that Mole Mac 1.16 is a major update, adding cleanup of junk files from AI tools like Claude Code and Codex, cleanup of system data caches and logs, improved uninstall cleanup (personally tested on 800+ apps), and updated icons and copy. However, these features and test numbers are all one-sided claims by the author, lacking independent first-party corroboration.
Author Tw93 announced on X that Mole Mac 1.16 is a major update. According to the post, the most prominent new capability is cleaning junk files generated by AI tools like Claude Code and Codex. This positioning echoes another self-description by the author: he claims to have tested almost all mainstream AI tools for cleaning and maintenance of AI software.
It must be made clear that the above feature descriptions all come from a single post by the author himself on X, are the author's self-claims, and no independent first-party source corroboration has been seen. The post does not explain the specific mechanism or cleanup scope of 'cleaning junk files from tools like Claude Code and Codex,' so the actual effect cannot yet be verified.
In addition to AI tool junk, the author claims Mole Mac 1.16 can also clean caches and logs in System Data. The Chinese part of the post says 'this time, the Mac System Data that has been troubling everyone can also be seen and cleaned,' suggesting the feature targets the long-reported System Data occupation issue among Mac users.
However, the actual effect and safety of System Data cache and log cleanup have not been confirmed by third parties. The author also did not disclose the specific implementation or cleanup boundaries of this feature, so readers can only regard it as a one-sided claim by the author.
The author claims Mole Mac 1.16 improves the uninstall cleanup feature and emphasizes that this feature has been personally tested on 800+ apps. In the Chinese part of the post, he further gives a specific number: the current software uninstall test count has reached 824 apps, and he expresses hope to reach 1,000 tests.
These numbers are among the few quantitative pieces of information in this update, but they are likewise the author's own account. The post does not disclose the specific testing standards, testing environment, or results for the '800+ app tests' and '824 apps,' so it is impossible to judge how strongly this test scale supports the actual uninstall cleanup effect.
The author claims Mole Mac 1.16 updates the icons and adopts friendlier copy. In addition, he claims to have continued using Codex to generate 4 images to help domestic users better understand this Mole upgrade. These two items are adjustments at the product appearance and communication level and do not involve functional mechanisms.
The detail of using Codex to generate explanatory images echoes the author's self-description of having 'tested almost all mainstream AI tools,' but the author did not list the specific tool inventory or testing methods, so it is impossible to infer Mole's coverage of the AI tool ecosystem from this.
