Problem
"Which folder is big?" is the wrong question. A folder tree tells you 34 GB sits in AppData; it does not tell you that it belongs to software you uninstalled two years ago.
Solution
DiskScope attributes every byte to the application that owns it: program files, user data, cache, logs, and the leftovers. It correlates registry entries, package managers, digital signatures, services and known-path signatures into one profile, and scores how confident it is in each attribution.
Architecture
A Rust core does the scan and the attribution. Nothing is sent anywhere.
Lessons learned
The installer is built and the tests pass, and it still isn't released, because I don't yet trust it enough to delete a file on its say-so, and I wrote it. A cleanup tool you're afraid to clean with is not finished, however finished the code is. Packaging was never the gate here.
Outcome
Code and installer done, 34 tests passing. Held back deliberately until the attribution is confident enough that deleting on its recommendation is safe.
