A mod manager for MacNativeGames ports

[nickpetrovic]

Thanks to MacNativeGames I've been playing Tears of the Kingdom natively on my Mac, and I wanted mods to be as easy as they are with TKMM. So I made Graft.

Disclaimer: I'm an engineer by trade, but most of Graft was written with AI, so expect rough edges and please report anything that looks wrong.

You drop mods on the window, switch them on or off, drag them into order, and press Play. Graft merges them, installs them where the game app reads them, and starts the game.

A few things I'm happy with:

• It merges TotK mods with TkSharp, the same library TKMM uses, and can import your TKMM library.
• Some Switch code mods crash on the Mac because they write into read-only code memory. Graft fixes those it can (Teleport Anywhere works now) and tells you about the ones it can't.
• If the game crashes, it names the mod whose code was running and offers to turn it off.
• I keep TotK 1.2.1 and 1.4.3 side by side, and each version has its own load order.
• It also works for Octopath Traveler 0 .pak mods, and every port is described in an editable JSON file, so other ports that load a mod folder the same way can be added from the app, without code.

It's early and built from source for now: make install after cloning. It needs an Apple silicon Mac with macOS 26 or later, the Command Line Tools for Xcode, the .NET 10 SDK, and your MacNativeGames checkout.
