Decision brief

repoprompt-ce is an open-source Swift-based macOS app designed to support AI coding agents through context engineering features and integration with MCP CLI, suitable for developers working on the macOS platform.

Good fit when

You need a tool that integrates well with the macOS environment
Your project involves prompt engineering specifically requiring MCP CLI support

Avoid when

Your development does not involve work on the macOS platform
The necessity for an open-source option is outweighed by other proprietary features you require

README

Install with Homebrew

For the signed and notarized public app, use the dedicated RepoPrompt CE Homebrew tap:

brew tap repoprompt/repoprompt-ce
brew install --cask repoprompt-ce

This installs /Applications/RepoPrompt CE.app from the repoprompt/homebrew-repoprompt-ce tap. The cask consumes the promoted public updater ZIP from repoprompt/repoprompt-ce-updates; it does not build from source. Source-build paths remain below for contributors and local development.

Install a local production build

For a release-mode app under /Applications, install Python 3 and double-click Install RepoPrompt CE Local Production.command in Finder. The Finder launcher uses the coordinated developer daemon.

The installer builds RepoPrompt CE from source and replaces any existing /Applications/RepoPrompt CE.app using a dedicated self-signed certificate trusted only on your Mac. macOS may ask you to approve the certificate. It requires a full Xcode installation and selects a compatible installed Xcode for the installer process without changing your system-wide xcode-select setting.

The resulting app is local-only. It is not notarized and should not be copied to another Mac or redistributed.

Source-build requirements

macOS 26 or later
Xcode 26, or matching Command Line Tools with the macOS 26 SDK. The Finder debug launcher and local production installer require the full Xcode app.
