Signed Mac bundles
16 of 21 plugins provide signed bundles for Apple silicon Macs with macOS 15 or later. Each bundle includes its own Python runtime, so you don't need Python, pipx, or a virtual environment. mere.run verifies the publisher and macOS notarization before it activates a bundle.
Frontier Handoff, SearXNG Search, Computer Use, ShotGrid Tools, and RunPod Runner install from source with pipx and need a Python environment.
Install from Studio
In macOS Studio, open Plugins, select a plugin, and confirm its installation. To use the terminal instead, follow these steps.
To run a plugin command without changing your PATH, use mere.run plugin run. For example, to view the Archive Tools investigation options, run:
mere.run plugin run mere-archive-tools -- investigate --help
Know where your work runs
Each plugin card lists where the plugin runs. Before you run a plugin, check its dependencies, destinations, and the data that it keeps.
On your Mac
Most plugins run local mere.run models and write their outputs to disk. Computer Use acts only in the window that you select and records action and observation counts.
Accounts and web engines
SearXNG runs locally and sends search queries to its configured web engines. Frontier Handoff sends tasks through your Claude Code or Codex account. RunPod creates billable pods, and ShotGrid receives published artifacts.
Sensitive data
Redaction can miss sensitive values. Media Scrub redacts extracted text, not image pixels. Protect retained file paths, embeddings, and databases.
Plans and cleanup
Provider plugins record a run manifest before they create paid resources. RunPod terminates pods by default.
Build repeatable workflows
Use typed graph providers to compose supported plugins on local, SSH, or Relay workers. Preflight checks and artifact contracts describe each node.
