Mac AI Optimizer

Optimize macOS for AI workloads (OpenClaw, Docker, Ollama). Turn an 8GB Mac into a lean AI server node with near-16GB performance for Agent tasks.

Tools

optimize_memory

Reduce macOS idle memory from ~6GB to ~2.5GB by disabling Spotlight indexing, Siri, photo analysis, and other background services.

Usage: "Optimize this Mac's memory for AI workloads"

reduce_ui

Lower GPU and RAM usage by disabling animations, transparency, and Dock effects.

Usage: "Reduce UI overhead on this Mac"

docker_optimize

Configure Docker Desktop resource limits to prevent it from consuming all available memory. Sets CPU, RAM, and swap to balanced values.

Usage: "Optimize Docker for this Mac"

enable_ssh

Enable remote login (SSH) so this Mac can be managed remotely as an AI compute node.

Usage: "Enable SSH on this Mac"

system_report

Show current memory, CPU, swap usage, and running service count. Helps decide what to optimize.

Usage: "Show system resource report"

full_optimize

Run all optimizations in sequence: system report -> memory -> UI -> Docker -> SSH. One command to turn a Mac into an AI server node.

Usage: "Full optimize this Mac for OpenClaw"

Trigger

When the user asks to optimize Mac for AI, reduce memory usage, set up Mac as AI server, improve OpenClaw performance, or run AI workloads on low-memory Mac.

Example prompts

  • "Optimize this Mac for running OpenClaw"
  • "My Mac only has 8GB RAM, make it run AI better"
  • "Turn this Mac mini into an AI server"
  • "Reduce memory usage so Docker runs better"
  • "Set up this Mac as a remote AI node"
