# macOS Install
```bash
curl -fsSL https://openjarvis.ai/install.sh | bash
```
Works on Intel and Apple Silicon. The installer auto-detects your CPU/GPU.
## Prerequisites
If you've never run `git` or `curl` on this Mac, macOS will prompt you to install the Xcode Command Line Tools the first time you run them. Accept the prompt; that gives you both.
If you'd rather pre-install:
```bash
xcode-select --install
```
## Apple Silicon notes
- The installer picks `mlx` as the recommended engine via the standard hardware-detect path, but the foreground default is still Ollama for compatibility. Switch later with `jarvis init --force` and pick `mlx` if you've installed `mlx-lm`.
- Unified memory is reported as "VRAM" by the installer — that's intentional; on Apple Silicon, system RAM is what GPU-accelerated models can use.
