maptic/tap

Homebrew tap for maptic apps and tools.

Install

brew install --cask maptic/tap/mounty

Upgrading follows the usual Homebrew flow:

brew upgrade --cask maptic/tap/mounty

Important

Always use the full maptic/tap/mounty token. Homebrew resolves unqualified tokens to the official taps first, so the bare mounty does not reach this tap.

Brewfile

tap "maptic/tap"
cask "maptic/tap/mounty"

Note

Homebrew asks you to trust a third-party tap before it loads anything from it. In a script or CI run, where there is nobody to answer the prompt, trust it up front:

brew trust --tap maptic/tap

First launch

Until a cask's app ships notarized, macOS refuses the first launch with "could not verify … is free of malware". Open the app, dismiss the warning, then approve it once under System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway. Homebrew re-applies the quarantine flag on upgrade but carries your approval forward, so this is a one-time step per app.

Apple removed the old right-click → Open shortcut in macOS 15, and Homebrew 6 no longer accepts --no-quarantine, so there is no way to skip the approval from the command line.

How releases land here

Casks are never bumped by hand. Each source repository releases through release-please; when its release workflow has uploaded the artifacts it sends a cask-release repository_dispatch to this tap. The Update cask workflow then renders the download URL from the cask itself, downloads the asset, computes its sha256, and commits the bump to main.

The checksum is deliberately recomputed here rather than trusted from the dispatch payload, so the tap always attests the bytes it actually publishes.
