Is setup-mac safe to install?

Yes — setup-mac is safe to install, with something worth knowing. Sonnet 5 read every file setup-mac ships from maccman/growth-agents on 7 September 2026 and found nothing that acts against the person installing it; the static scan of its 26 rules grades it A.

What the reviewer found

A friendly Mac onboarding command: it asks the user for their own AI-provider API keys to write into the project's local `.env` file (nothing leaves the machine), and the Homebrew/nvm curl installs are each project's official GitHub-hosted install script.

What was read

The file as it ships in maccman/growth-agents:

What the static scan said

The scan flagged 3things. The reviewer kept 0 and dismissed 3 as false.

How this review was made

Sonnet 5 read the files above on 7 September 2026 and answered three questions: is it dangerous to whoever installs it, is each scanner finding real, and what should the installer know. The verdict is bound to the file's hash; when the file changes, it is scanned afresh and reviewed again. A script that changes while the definition does not is not re-reviewed — that is a known gap. How the scan and the review work.
