aerial-watchdog

Little helper script. Installs a LaunchAgent that monitors legacyScreenSaver and automatically kills it if it detects that the saver process has hung and is eating the CPU.

This problem seems to occur on some macOS Sonoma 14 machines. See: JohnCoates/Aerial#1341

Install

  • Download the ss_watchdog script or clone this repo
  • copy the script to /usr/local/bin
  • execute ss_watchdog --install to install the Agent

Uninstall

  • execute ss_watchdog --uninstall
