Uninstall

Uninstalling does not turn auto-deploy back on. Your projects stay manual until you reconnect them (Auto-deploy off and on). Do that first if you want it, while ~/.config/deploys/vercel-repos.json still tells you which repo each project came from: deploys vercel autodeploy-on --all and deploys render autodeploy-on --all.

1. Stop what runs on its own#

In the app, turn off Settings → Open at login (or remove Deploy Center under System Settings → General → Login Items).
Autofix, if you turned on its schedule (launchd job app.deploycenter.autofix):
```
deploys autofix schedule off
```
The guard, if you turned on its schedule (launchd job app.deploycenter.guard, see Auto-deploy guard):
```
deploys guard schedule off
```
Both remove their file in ~/Library/LaunchAgents/. Without deploys, run launchctl bootout gui/$(id -u)/app.deploycenter.autofix (or .guard) and delete ~/Library/LaunchAgents/app.deploycenter.autofix.plist (or .guard.plist).

Only if you set up the daily LaunchAgent from scripts/daily-deploy.plist.example:

launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/app.deploycenter.daily.plist
rm ~/Library/LaunchAgents/app.deploycenter.daily.plist /tmp/deploy-center-daily.log

The iPhone app: in Settings, turn off Connect the iPhone app (iCloud Keychain). That removes the keys the Mac put into your iCloud Keychain (item app.deploycenter.link), so they leave your other devices too. A QR code leaves nothing behind on the Mac; delete the iOS app on the phone.

Then quit the app.

2. Disconnect Claude and the editor add-ons#

Only what you set up:

Claude Desktop and Claude Code (connected in Settings → Claude): disconnect them there before you remove the app. Without the app:
```
claude mcp remove deploy-center --scope user
```
For Claude Desktop, delete the deploy-center entry under mcpServers in ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and restart Claude Desktop. If you added the MCP server by hand under another name (for example deploys), remove that name.

The Claude Code plugin, in a Claude Code session:

/plugin uninstall deploy-center@deploy-center

/plugin marketplace remove deploy-center

The VS Code extension (also Cursor, Windsurf): uninstall it from the Extensions view, or code --uninstall-extension deploycenter.deploy-center.
The Raycast extension: remove it in Raycast → Settings → Extensions.
Widgets: remove the Deploy Center widgets from the desktop or Notification Center (Mac) and from the Home Screen (iPhone, iPad).

3. Remove the app#

Installed with Homebrew:

brew uninstall --cask deploy-center

brew uninstall --zap --cask deploy-center also removes the settings and the error log (see below). It keeps ~/.config/deploys.

Installed by hand: move Deploy Center from Applications (or ~/Applications) to the Trash.

Only the CLI, installed with the script (use the same --prefix as for the install):

curl -fsSL https://deploycenter.app/install.sh | sh -s -- --uninstall

Only the CLI, installed with Homebrew: brew uninstall deploys.

4. Remove what it kept on your Mac#

What	Where	Remove with
Render API key	Keychain, a password item with the service name `deploy-center-render` (older versions: `render-api-key`)	`security delete-generic-password -a "$USER" -s deploy-center-render`
Anthropic API key (Claude in the app)	Keychain, service name `deploy-center-anthropic`	`deploys ai forget-key`, or `security delete-generic-password -a "$USER" -s deploy-center-anthropic`
Autofix routine token	Keychain, service name `deploy-center-routine`	`deploys autofix forget-token`, or `security delete-generic-password -a "$USER" -s deploy-center-routine`
Keys of the opt-in hosts (Netlify, Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, Coolify; Amplify keeps only a profile name)	Keychain, service names `deploy-center-netlify`, `deploy-center-cloudflare`, `deploy-center-digitalocean`, `deploy-center-coolify`, `deploy-center-amplify`	`security delete-generic-password -a "$USER" -s deploy-center-<name>` for each one you set
Deploy hook URLs	Keychain, `deploy-center-hook-<name>` (without a keychain: `~/.config/deploys/hook-urls/`)	`deploys hook remove <name>`
The Vercel token made for the iPhone	Keychain, service name `deploy-center-phone-vercel`	`security delete-generic-password -a "$USER" -s deploy-center-phone-vercel`
Widget data (a small snapshot of what waits)	`~/Library/Group Containers/<team id>.app.deploycenter/`	delete that folder (only builds with widgets have it)
App settings	`~/Library/Preferences/app.deploycenter.mac.plist`	`defaults delete app.deploycenter.mac`
Cached lists, deploy history, site logos	`~/Library/Caches/app.deploycenter.mac/`	`rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/app.deploycenter.mac`
Error log	`~/Library/Logs/DeployCenter.log`	`rm ~/Library/Logs/DeployCenter.log`
CLI settings: remembered repos, team, ignored projects, Claude model, cap and usage (`ai-*`), Autofix and guard state, allowances, Netlify hook URLs	`~/.config/deploys/` (or `$DEPLOYS_CONFIG`)	`rm -rf ~/.config/deploys`

If you had a key under the old name, run the keychain line again with -s render-api-key.

Tab completion: remove the eval "$(deploys completion zsh)" line from ~/.zshrc (or the bash line from ~/.bashrc) if you added it.

5. Optional: revoke access#

Deploy Center never had its own account. To revoke what it used:

Render: delete the API key at dashboard.render.com → Account Settings → API Keys.
Anthropic: delete the API key at console.anthropic.com → Settings → API keys, and the Autofix routine (and its token) at claude.ai → Code → Routines.
Netlify, Cloudflare, DigitalOcean, Coolify: delete the token you made for Deploy Center in each dashboard. On Netlify, also delete the build hook named deploy-center and, if you want builds on push again, the ignore line in netlify.toml.
GitLab: glab auth logout, or revoke the GITLAB_TOKEN in GitLab → Preferences → Access tokens.
Vercel and GitHub: it used your vercel and gh logins. vercel logout and gh auth logout end them, also for everything else that uses them.
