Dure’s public beta is available for macOS on Apple silicon. Bring an installed coding-agent CLI and its provider account; Dure does not include a model subscription.

Install the Mac app

  1. Download the latest Dure for macOS.
  2. Open the DMG and drag Dure into Applications.
  3. Open Dure from Applications.
This link stays up to date with the latest public Mac beta. See the release notes for your downloaded version’s supported features, signing and notarization details, and known limitations.

Install from the command line

To install the same beta without opening the DMG, run this in Terminal:
The script checks the download against the digest published with the release and confirms that macOS accepts Dure’s signature and notarization before it installs the current public beta. It installs into Applications, or the Applications folder in your home directory if your account can’t write to the system one, and adds the dure command to ~/.local/bin. To choose another folder, set DURE_APP_INSTALL_DIR to an absolute path. If Dure is already installed, quit it first. If a check fails, your existing app stays in place. Run the script again to replace Dure with the current beta.

Install with Homebrew

If you use Homebrew, trust the Dure tap once, then install the cask:
Homebrew loads casks from a tap outside its own repositories only after you trust that tap. If Homebrew reports that trust is an unknown command, run brew update first. The cask installs the current public beta into Applications after checking the download against the digest published with the release. If Dure is already in Applications, Homebrew stops instead of replacing it; add --adopt to the install command to let Homebrew manage that copy. Dure has its own update flow, described below, so a plain brew upgrade skips it. To update through Homebrew instead, name the cask: brew upgrade --cask hebbianai/tap/dure.

Prepare one coding agent

Install and sign in to the agent you want to use. Check that its command starts in your regular terminal, for example claude, codex or kimi. In Dure, Settings → Agent CLI shows detected tools and available setup actions. Provider subscriptions, model access and usage charges remain separate from Dure. For account profiles and terminal/chat support, see coding agents.

Update an existing installation

Open Settings → General to see the installed version and choose Check for updates. When a newer beta is available, review the notice and choose its download and installation actions. Checking alone does not install an update or restart the app. Older betas without this update flow need one manual replacement: download the current DMG, quit the old app and replace Dure in Applications. Then reopen it. Review unfinished work and session state before an update; recovery is different from continuing the same running process.
Confirm that the file came from the official download link above. If the warning reports a damaged app, download a fresh copy and compare the release information. Follow Apple’s guidance for the specific warning. Do not disable macOS security protections or force open a file reported as malware.

Start working

Open a project and start your first agent. If a tool is missing or sign-in fails, use troubleshooting.
