CCBaga: Claude local cleanup and browser environment checks

Claude’s desktop app and CLI scatter caches, sessions and account traces across several directories, and deleting them by hand risks both leftovers and collateral damage. CCBaga is a desktop toolkit by the developer liseami, open-sourced on October 11, 2026 and written in Rust with Tauri 2 under the MIT license, that puts two jobs in one workflow: reviewing and removing Claude’s local data, and aligning browser fingerprint, time zone and language with a chosen region before verifying the network exit item by item. The repo collected about 650 stars within a day of appearing (as of October 12, 2026); the latest release, v0.2.17, shipped on October 12. The most interesting design is the two-app split — CCBaga-A owns native operations while CCBaga-B is a Fingerprint Chromium build with a dedicated profile, and measurements travel back to the cleaner over a local loopback session, so changing a setting and verifying its effect stay separate steps.

Core features

• Claude local cleanup: scans caches, account traces, sessions, configuration remnants and existing backups for per-item selection; project source, skills, plugins, hooks and MCP settings stay untouched by default. Deletion is permanent — no Trash, no recovery copies — and the latest scan must be reviewed before anything runs.
• Fingerprint rotation: generates a fresh seed, applies the selected region’s language and time zone, then restarts CCBaga-B. The browser engine is a pinned Fingerprint Chromium 148.0.7778.215 from the upstream fingerprint-chromium project.
• Environment checks: compares browser readings and machine settings against the actual network exit (ipwho.is, with ipapi.co as fallback); the green checkmark page appears only when every measured item passes. The README is upfront that DNS and WebRTC leak checks are not independently verified and a green page is not an anonymity guarantee.
• System settings: applies time zone, preferred language and region; changing the time zone on macOS needs administrator authorization. Picking a region never changes your public IP.
• AI-guided network setup: three steps — VPS, residential proxy, install the Skill. Paste the generated prompt into your own coding agent (Codex, Cursor, OpenCode or Copilot) and it handles paths, commands and checks; the app never touches SSH keys or proxy credentials. The provider buttons point to DMIT and Webshare and carry referral codes.
• Claude Code CLI management: detects whether the CLI came from the native installer, npm or Homebrew; uninstall and reinstall keep settings, skills, sessions and project files.

Typical use cases

• Before reinstalling the OS or switching machines, wipe Claude’s local data without losing sessions and skills — a login reset or cache-only cleanup beats digging through directories by hand.
• Cross-region users who need the browser environment to match the actual exit: after changing time zone and language, the built-in check page confirms that browser readings, machine settings and network exit all agree.
• Anyone who would rather not hand-write Xray/Reality config: let a coding agent follow the Skill’s prompt on your own VPS, with remote changes gated behind an approval.

Quick start

macOS 12 or later on Apple Silicon: download one DMG from Releases — it carries both apps. Linux x86_64 gets DEB, RPM, AppImage and Arch packages. There is no Windows build and no Intel macOS build.

# macOS: open the latest release page (v0.2.17 right now)
open https://github.com/liseami/CCBaga/releases/latest
# Drag both CCBaga-A.app and CCBaga-B.app into Applications, then launch CCBaga-A

CCBaga-A starts the companion browser on launch, and the sidebar switches between English and Chinese. Run a Claude cleanup scan once to see what it finds before deciding the scope; fingerprint rotation restarts CCBaga-B, so save any browser work first.

Summary

CCBaga suits people who use Claude daily and care about local data and environment consistency; if you live in the web app and have no multi-region needs, most of it will sit idle. Know what you are agreeing to: cleanup is permanent and selected backups go with it; the green page only means the measured checks passed — the README explicitly promises nothing about account acceptance; network setup requires your own VPS and residential proxy, and the Skill only supports authorized Debian 12/13 servers. Where ECC tends the workflow side of Claude Code, CCBaga tends the data and environment side; the item-by-item verification idea rhymes with the Web-Check site reports. MIT-licensed, and official builds come only from liseami himself.
