Install on your Mac.

The cybee installer is a single command, run on the Mac you want to protect. Installing on one Mac does not install it on the rest of your team.

Before you start

Use a supported Mac and confirm its macOS version before installing. Intel Macs, iPhone, iPad and servers are not supported. Windows and Linux support is in development.

Check the requirements

Use the install command

Start in Chat, CLI, IDE or Terminal. The command runs in a shell on your Mac, including the terminal inside your IDE. It fetches the installer from get.cybee.dev. Copying it here does not run it.

Chat · CLI · IDE · Terminal
curl -sSf https://get.cybee.dev | sh

Using Chat or a coding assistant? Share the command with it, then follow the confirmed connection and permission steps. A chat without access to your Mac cannot run the installer.

Make the first check useful

A useful first observation.
This Mac

Identify the device you actually installed on.

This moment

Read when it was observed.

Open findings

Keep missing observations and proposed changes separate.

Open a part to see how it fits.
  1. Identify this Mac

    An installation token identifies this Mac. An email address links it to its owner.

  2. Ask for its current state

    Start with a plain question. Check that the answer names the Mac, the observation time and anything that could not be assessed.

  3. Separate the finding from the action

    A score reports the settings checked. Review each proposed change and which Mac it affects before confirming.

Ask your assistant

Is this Mac protected? Show the last observation and anything you could not assess.

If the install does not complete

Keep the exact error and the step at which it appeared. Include your Mac model, macOS version and whether you used Chat, CLI, IDE or Terminal when contacting us. Remove tokens, passwords and unrelated private content from anything you share.

After installation, check that this Mac appears in the record with a recent protection observation.

Find the right next step

The next step is one command.

Protect your Mac, strengthen its settings and keep a dated record of the results.

For supported Macs. cybee is a Swiss company, independent, privacy first.
