Duplex for macOS

Run a second copy of any Electron app.

A second Claude, a second Slack, a second Discord, each with its own login, settings, and Dock icon. The original app stays untouched and keeps updating itself.

Install

Three lines, no Gatekeeper warnings.

brew tap bnimit/tap
brew trust bnimit/tap
brew install --cask duplex

brew trust is a one-time step Homebrew asks for on third-party taps. Prefer a direct download? Grab the notarized zip from the latest release. Requires macOS 13 or later.

A login for every copy

Each instance keeps its profile, cookies, and settings in an isolated data folder. Two accounts, zero collisions.

The original stays untouched

Wrappers launch the app's own binary with an isolated profile. No patching, no re-signing, updates keep flowing.

Logins that actually work

OAuth callbacks route to one app on macOS. Duplex's link routing sends them to the instance you are signing in to.

Small and inspectable

Native Swift, zero dependencies, notarized by Apple. The source is public on GitHub under a source-available license.

First instance free, forever. A $5 license unlocks unlimited instances on up to 2 Macs. Pay once, own it, no subscription.
