Clean your IDE. Manage your context. Inspect your MCPs.
A powerful extension for VS Code, Cursor, Antigravity, and JetBrains that keeps your development environment clean and efficient — from IDE traces and browser sessions to AI context and MCP server management.
Modules
Everything in one dashboard
System Cleaner
CoreAutomatically detects your active IDE (VS Code, Cursor, or Antigravity) and cleans only its relevant traces. Includes deep-clean mode for a system-wide wipe of all dev tool caches, with smart protections to skip sensitive config files.
Browser Recordings
AntigravityManage recordings created by the Antigravity internal browser. View, delete, or schedule automatic daily or weekly cleanup of previous recordings to reclaim disk space.
Session Manager

Context Cleaner
ContextWipe the extension state and "memory" of your IDE to fix state-related bugs or free space. Works per-workspace (current project only) or globally across all workspaces ever opened.
MCP Inspector
AI / MCPDebug and manage your Model Context Protocol servers. Reads configs for your current IDE and active workspace, lets you enable/disable servers, copy launch commands, and filter MCPs by project type (Angular, React, Python…).

Common questions
- Is it free?
- Yes — completely free and open source (MIT). No account or subscription needed.
- Does it work with Cursor and Antigravity?
- Yes. Context Cleaner auto-detects your active IDE and adapts its cleaning accordingly. It supports VS Code, Cursor, Antigravity (Gemini), and JetBrains / WebStorm.
- Will it delete my settings or extensions?
- No. Smart protections automatically skip sensitive config files (like antigravity/knowledge, user_settings) and your Extensions folder. The 'dry run' mode lets you preview exactly what would be deleted before committing.
- What are MCP servers?
- Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers extend AI assistants with custom tools and data sources. The MCP Inspector lets you view, enable, disable, and debug them directly inside your IDE.
- Is it safe to use in a work environment?
- Yes. Everything runs locally inside VS Code. No telemetry or external requests. Your data never leaves your machine.
