yeaboi for Mac.

The whole of yeaboi — planning, standups, retros, poker, 1:1s, delivery reports, and the agent watchers — in a window instead of a terminal. It brings its own Python, so there is nothing to install first.

what you get

An app, not a wrapper.

Self-contained

The installer carries its own Python runtimes and starts its backend on a loopback port. No pip, no interpreter to pick, nothing to configure before it opens.

no python · no setup

The same yeaboi

Same engines, same modes, same ~/.yeaboi. Sessions you started in the terminal open in the app, and back again — install both and they agree.

shared sessions · shared config

Signed and notarized

Built, signed with an Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple on every release. No Gatekeeper workaround, no right-click-to-open, no xattr.

what it isn't

Worth being clear about.

It is a shell over the same engine, not a different product — and not a hosted one. Everything it computes, it computes on your machine.

macOS only, for now
Windows and Linux builds exist in the pipeline but are not shipped yet. On those, yeaboi is the terminal app.
The terminal app stays
It remains the primary surface, on macOS and Linux both, and it is what install.sh installs.
Native Windows, either way
The terminal UI needs a POSIX terminal; use WSL. That is a property of the CLI, not of this app.

two ways in

Take whichever fits.

The app and the CLI are the same product with the same data. Most people end up with both.
