I built a lightweight addon to keep your bags clean before you visit a vendor.

Hi everyone!

I’ve been working on a passion project recently to solve a specific annoyance I kept running into: my bags filling up with grey junk items halfway through a dungeon or farm session, forcing me to stop and delete things manually.

I know there are plenty of "auto-sell" addons out there, but I wanted something that proactively manages inventory while I’m playing, not just when I’m at a merchant.

So, I built GreyGone.

It’s my very first addon, and I’ve designed it to be as lightweight and "set-and-forget" as possible.

🚀 What makes it different? Most junk addons wait until you talk to a vendor to sell your greys. GreyGone focuses on keeping your bags empty while you are out in the world.

Smart Looting: This is the big one. If you loot a grey item (or a stack of them), GreyGone can detect it and delete it instantly. No more "Inventory is Full" errors in the middle of a raid run.

Combat Safety: It effectively pauses during combat, so you never have to worry about scripts running while you're fighting for your life.

The "Nuke" Button: Sometimes you just want a clean slate. I added a manual button in the settings to instantly clear all greys.

Transactional & Safe: I designed the logic to be transactional—it identifies and removes items carefully to ensure it never touches your non-grey loot.

I need your help! Since this is my first public release (v1.0), I am looking for players to give it a spin and let me know what you think.

Did it miss a specific junk item?

Do you have a feature request?

Did you find a bug?

I’m trying to learn and improve, so any feedback (good or bad) is genuinely appreciated.

It's interesting even though the uses might be limited.

It's a great idea if it motivates you to learn and experiment, which it seems it did.

Practically, (and personally) I'd found more useful if instead of deleting all greys, it only deleted the less valued greys in your inventory so that you always had 'X' free space.

Examples:
1) I go to the addon configs and set "minimum empty slots" as 3.
2) My bags have 30 free slots
3) I go to a dungeon or farming some ore
4) somewhere during this, I loot a lot of greys, up to a point where I now have 3 empty slots.
5) I loot another mob, which has 2 greys.
6) the combat ends, the addon notices I only have 1 empty slot (3-2=1) and automatically knows it has to delete 2 grey slots
7) the addon checks all greys, and notices that some greys that I have are stackable (spider or animal grey items) while others are not (grey sword, grey sandals, etc)
8) the addon notices that the grey sandals are worth 50c, the grey sword is worth 49c, but the spider poison (grey) is worth 30c but stacks up to 5 (5*30= 1s30c)
9) the addon decides to delete the sword and the sandals

Would this be something interesting for you to add to this addon (or to a new one)?
Also, the decision to delete 2 grey items doesn't "need" to be "smart" like I described. It would be great if it could, but it would be a "nice to have". The addon could simply delete the two last grey items you looted (or the grey items in the first slots).
