Show HN: Baa – a menu bar app that frees RAM your AI agents forgot about

Hacker News Show2026-10-12 22:490 views

i built this because my mac keeps running out of RAM every 2 hours and i typically get around it by closing random apps and hoping it will help. :')

baa sits in the menu bar and:

- finds stuff still eating memory after its app or terminal closed, or that ai agents started and forgot (dev servers, headless browsers)

- shows how much you'd get back and frees it in one click

- warns you a few minutes before you run out

- also finds dev junk on your disk (old builds, package caches etc.)

open source and nothing leaves your machine. would love feedback!

baa would've cleared ~50gb on my mac :)
