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.
Which one? Apple menu → About This Mac. A Chip line means Apple silicon; a Processor line means Intel. · install guide →
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.
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.
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.
