macOS users expect brew install --cask poltertype. Two stages:
Stage 1 — our own tap (no thresholds, can happen today):
- Create
Just-Code-NET/homebrew-tap with a cask pulling the release DMG (version + sha256 templated from the release; a tiny update script or CI step keeps it current per release).
- Install line becomes
brew install --cask just-code-net/tap/poltertype — goes into the README + the site's macOS card.
- Honesty note the cask description should carry: installers are currently unsigned, so first launch still needs right-click → Open; the cask must not silently strip quarantine for the user.
Stage 2 — main homebrew-cask (later):
The main repo has notability thresholds for apps hosted on GitHub (≥75 stars / 30 forks / 30 watchers, with an exception path for apps with their own website). We don't clear that bar yet; once we do — or if the poltertype.com exception applies — promote the cask from the tap and deprecate the tap entry. Cheap to attempt early: a rejected PR costs nothing and tells us exactly where the bar is.
If you package Homebrew casks regularly and want to own this — comment, it's yours.
