Start with a simple token setup. When you’re ready, you can register and manage Localtonet as a background service (launchd). Homebrew and manual install options are provided.
Use our official tap to install Localtonet on macOS:
brew tap localtonet/tap
brew install localtonet
localtonet --version
tap
adds a third-party repository so you can install and update formulae from it.Authenticate this device using a token from Dashboard → My Tokens:
localtonet --authtoken <YOUR_TOKEN>
The token is stored locally for your user and can be rotated or revoked any time from the dashboard.
If you prefer a direct download, grab the archive for your Mac and install manually:
curl -L https://localtonet.com/download/localtonet-osx-arm64.zip -o localtonet-osx-arm64.zip
unzip localtonet-osx-arm64.zip -d ~/localtonet
chmod 755 ~/localtonet/localtonet
# Optional: move into PATH (may require sudo) # sudo mv ~/localtonet/localtonet /usr/local/bin/localtonet # Authenticate:localtonet --authtoken <YOUR_TOKEN>
curl -L https://localtonet.com/download/localtonet-osx-64.zip -o localtonet-osx-64.zip
unzip localtonet-osx-64.zip -d ~/localtonet
chmod 755 ~/localtonet/localtonet
# Optional: move into PATH (may require sudo) # sudo mv ~/localtonet/localtonet /usr/local/bin/localtonet # Authenticate:localtonet --authtoken <YOUR_TOKEN>
chmod 755
