Install, test and keep secrets for MCP servers from a single terminal app
Emerged finds new products worth a look, daily — what’s new today
If your Mac setup or CI spends minutes in brew install, glu reuses the same 8,000-plus bottles with overlapping downloads and installs and cuts that time roughly in half.
Glu is an open-source package manager for Apple Silicon Macs, written in Rust, that installs command-line tools from Homebrew's bottle ecosystem. It resolves the dependency graph server-side in one round trip, so there is no brew update step, then overlaps download, extract and install with critical-path scheduling. The README benchmark installs vips with all dependencies in 34 seconds against 78 for Homebrew. Every install records a local trace, package state lives in glu.json, and JSON Schema output plus a plan mode serve coding agents. BSD-2-Clause, v0.1.1, by Henrik Klee in Berlin.
