S.U.P.E.R.M.A.N. optimizes the macOS update experience.

by Kevin M. White

Please use the newest version of super for the best experience when using or upgrading to macOS 15 Sequoia. Older versions of super are not tested against macOS 15 Sequoia.

Introduction

S.U.P.E.R.M.A.N. (or just super) is an open source script that provides administrators with a comprehensive solution to encourage and enforce macOS minor updates, macOS major upgrades, Jamf Pro Policies, or enforced system restarts. Deployed using a single script and optional configuration profiles, super creates a background agent (aka LaunchDaemon) that ensures updates are applied with the least user interference possible. Further, super offers a broad range of options for customizable dialogs, notifications, schedules, deferrals, and deadlines. In other words, super makes the macOS update experience better for both users and administrators.
