My iCloud was full b/c my iMessage has 20GB of attachments. Pay more? Pay for an app to fix it?
Nah, Claude wrote me this script.
imessage_cleanup.sh.JPG (download it, unzip it, rename it to remove the .JPG so it’s just imessage_cleanup.sh)
Put it on your OSX and then type:
chmod +x imessage_cleanup.sh
sudo bash imessage_cleanup.sh
Or write your own this way:
“write me a super detailed script I can run on my osx as root sudo to clean up my imessage storage which is using 20GB of icloud. I want to detach all images and put them in a folder on my desktop organized by the sender (guess the sender based on conversation and my contacts db) then I want to delete all the images from the icloud/imessage collection and just have them in my desktop folder so I can back them up in a different way. the script should be extremely robust with. onscreeen terminal UI, options, selcgtors, error handling, logging, and safety before irreversible actions.”
