Kimi K2.6 cleans macOS app leftovers

A Reddit post shows Kimi K2.6 acting like a desktop agent that finds and removes macOS app files, including stray ~/.appname directories and other leftovers. The author says they improved the workflow by teaching the model to avoid slow recursive find calls in favor of top-level glob matching.

// ANALYSIS

The interesting part is not the uninstall task itself, but the fact that users are already turning agent behavior into durable operating knowledge. That is the difference between a flashy demo and a system people will actually keep using.

  • The post shows Kimi running shell commands to clean up app artifacts across multiple locations, which is a practical test of agentic tool use
  • The author explicitly fed back a performance issue, then updated the agent’s base knowledge, which is a nice example of human-in-the-loop refinement
  • The mention of `~/.appname` directories is a reminder that “uninstalling” on macOS often means hunting down hidden state, not just dragging an app to the trash
  • This also doubles as a soft endorsement of open, controllable agent stacks: small codebase, voice input, and editable behavior matter as much as raw model capability
