Install in 30 seconds
Download the DMG
Click the download button above. Your browser will download the NodeRunner installer.
Open and drag to Applications
Double-click the DMG. Drag the NodeRunner icon to the Applications folder shortcut.
First launch
Launch NodeRunner from Applications. macOS may ask you to confirm you downloaded it from the internet — click Open.
Configure and run
Open NodeRunner and describe what you want to build in normal language. Node Builder turns it into a clear plan, asks only for the connections it needs, then runs it while keeping you in control.
Safe by design: Your credentials are stored locally on your Mac. Desktop searches and file access stay on-device, and NodeRunner only connects to services you explicitly configure.
