services install

Generate wrappers/plists and bootstrap default launchd services.

Usage

openbase-coder services install

What It Does

  1. Reads ~/.openbase/installation.json.
  2. Generates shell wrappers in ~/.openbase/launchd/.
  3. Generates plists in ~/Library/LaunchAgents/.
  4. Bootstraps each default service with launchctl.
  5. Configures the Tailscale Serve routes used by the iOS app:
  6. :18080 -> http://127.0.0.1:7999
  7. :7880 -> tcp://127.0.0.1:7880
  8. Writes logs to ~/.openbase/logs/.

For workspace-managed services, generated wrappers prefer binaries from <workspace>/.venv/bin/, then <workspace>/cli/.venv/bin/, then <workspace>/agent/.venv/bin/ before falling back to PATH. livekit-server is still resolved from PATH or /opt/homebrew/bin/livekit-server.

Optional services, such as the sync-daemon (Openbase Sync), are not installed by default; they are installed by the feature that needs them (for example pairing on the console Sync page or openbase-coder sync-daemon pair) or can be started explicitly:

openbase-coder services start sync-daemon

Installing services also removes leftover services that no longer exist, including the retired code-sync service of the previous sync.
