项目历史

Noodlesoft developed Hazel around a folder-and-rule model resembling mail rules: users select monitored folders, define conditions, and attach actions. Successive major versions expanded its matching, preview, automation, and file-management capabilities while preserving that core model.

Hazel 5 moved from a System Preferences pane to a standalone application. Noodlesoft continues to maintain the product; its official release notes list Hazel 6.1.2 in February 2026.

采用历史

Hazel became a long-running macOS automation utility used by power users to organize Downloads, Desktop, document, media, and archival workflows. Direct vendor distribution and Homebrew Cask make it available to both conventional Mac users and package-managed workstation setups.

使用方式

Users add one or more folders, define conditions based on names, dates, sizes, contents, tags, or metadata, and configure actions that Hazel runs automatically when items match.

Typical workflows include cleaning Downloads, filing documents, renaming scans, applying Finder tags, processing media, archiving old items, and managing Trash.

为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Hazel brings persistent, rule-based automation directly to the filesystem without requiring users to maintain a general-purpose script or daemon. Its rules can classify, rename, move, copy, tag, archive, upload, and remove files based on metadata and contents.
