macinventory is an open-source shell script that audits a macOS machine and produces a full documentation bundle covering installed apps, Homebrew packages, system settings, and configuration files. The output doubles as a restoration guide for rebuilding the same environment on a new device. Intended for developers, IT leads, and technical founders managing their own machines or small fleets, it fits the offboarding, migration, and disaster-recovery workflows that ecommerce engineering teams run manually today.
