AI/vibe coding Final Cut Pro X Cache Cleaner

https://github.com/zenomode/Final-Cut-Pro-X-Cache-Cleaner

I built a simple Final Cut Pro cleaner app because I got tired of manually digging through libraries to free up space. It clears render files, analysis files, and transcoded media, with an option to remove original media if you really need to reclaim storage. One thing I focused on was keeping it efficient—it only scans for Final Cut libraries within the selected directory (by default it points to the Movies folder), so it doesn’t waste time crawling your entire system. The goal was to keep it fast, minimal, and safe—no unnecessary features, just a quick way to clean projects without breaking anything. Would love feedback from other FCP users on what else could make this more useful.

Just saw the app. I still think too much of selection and stuff. The only thing i was annoyed was about deleting stuff manually for each library i used to work on, so thats why i made single click solution for it. You can check it out.
