The first Swift release replaces the Python implementation with a native macOS CLI.

  • Interactive terminal menu and searchable application picker.
  • Versioned JSON output, explicit exit codes, previews, and post-write verification.
  • Native NSWorkspace API; no Python or duti runtime dependency.
  • Universal executable for Apple Silicon and Intel, macOS 12 or later.

Download the .pkg for a Developer ID signed and notarized installer with a stapled
ticket. It installs macdefault into /usr/local/bin. The .tar.gz contains the same
signed executable for manual installation, including ~/.local/bin. Verify downloads
using SHA256SUMS. macOS may still request confirmation when changing default apps.

Swift starts at version 1.0.0; the existing v1.0.2 tag belongs to the Python edition.
The command interface changed: use macdefault --help and the migration table in README.
