Copilot for Mac

Copilot for Mac is a lightweight, unofficial Electron wrapper around the Microsoft Copilot web interface. It provides a dedicated macOS desktop experience with familiar menus, keyboard shortcuts, and several quality-of-life tools on top of the standard Copilot website.

This project does not modify or replace the official Copilot service. It simply loads the official site in an Electron shell.

Installation

Option 1: Download the DMG (recommended)

Download the latest macOS build from GitHub Releases:

• Latest DMG: https://github.com/SomeWhiteTrashGuy/copilot-mac/releases/latest

Steps:

1. Download the .dmg file from the latest release.

2. Open the .dmg.

3. Drag Copilot for Mac.app into your Applications folder.

4. Launch it from Applications or Spotlight.

5. On first launch, macOS may warn you about an “unidentified developer”:

   • Right-click the app → Open → confirm, or
   • Approve it under System Settings → Privacy & Security if needed.

Option 2: Build from source

git clone https://github.com/SomeWhiteTrashGuy/copilot-mac.git
cd copilot-mac
npm install

# Run in development
npm start

To build your own DMG:

npm run make

The built .dmg and other artifacts will be created under:

out/make/

Supported MacBook Models

This is an Electron app; requirements are mostly about macOS version and general performance (RAM, SSD) rather than GPU.

Verified (personally tested)

• MacBook Pro (13" / 15", 2011, Intel)

  • CPU: Intel Core i-series (dual- or quad-core)
  • Upgrades tested: 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD
  • OS: macOS Catalina (installed via community patcher)
  • Notes: Despite its age, the app runs reliably once a modern-enough macOS and Node/Electron are in place.

Expected to work well (Intel MacBooks)

The app should generally work on the following Intel-based MacBook families, assuming:

• A reasonably recent macOS (e.g., High Sierra or later)
• SSD (strongly recommended)
• At least 8 GB of RAM

MacBook Pro (Intel, roughly 2012–2015)

• 13" and 15" unibody / Retina models
• Typical CPUs: Intel Core i5 / i7

MacBook Air (Intel, roughly 2012–2017)

• 11" and 13" models
• Low-power Intel Core i5 / i7
• Most ship with SSD, which is ideal for Electron apps

MacBook (Retina, 12", 2015–2017, Intel)

• Single USB-C port
• Intel Core M processors
• Performance is modest but sufficient for a simple Electron wrapper

Apple Silicon (M1 / M2 / M3)

The app should also run on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) under Rosetta 2 like other Electron apps. However, this configuration has not been extensively tested for this specific project.

General rule: if your Mac can run a current-enough version of macOS to support the Electron version used here, it can probably run this app. SSD and sufficient RAM matter more than raw CPU speed.

Known Limitations

• This is not a native Copilot client; it is a controlled browser window for the official site.

• All authentication, chat history, and AI behavior are handled by Microsoft’s servers.

• You must have:

  • A working internet connection
  • A valid Microsoft account with access to Copilot (depending on region/plan)

• On older Intel MacBooks, startup may be slower, especially on patched macOS versions or spinning hard drives.
