# S.U.P.E.R.M.A.N.

### Software Update Policy Enforcement (with) Recursive Messaging And Notification

S.U.P.E.R.M.A.N. optimizes the macOS update experience.

by Kevin M. White

### Please use [the newest version of `super`](https://github.com/Macjutsu/super/releases) for the best experience when using or upgrading to macOS 15 Sequoia. Older versions of `super` are not tested against macOS 15 Sequoia.

## Introduction

S.U.P.E.R.M.A.N. (or just `super`) is an open source script that provides administrators with a comprehensive solution to encourage and enforce [macOS minor updates, macOS major upgrades,](https://support.apple.com/guide/deployment/about-software-updates-depc4c80847a) [Jamf Pro Policies,](https://learn.jamf.com/en-US/bundle/jamf-pro-documentation-current/page/Policies.html) or enforced system restarts. Deployed using a single script and optional configuration profiles, `super` creates a background agent (aka LaunchDaemon) that ensures updates are applied with the least user interference possible. Further, `super` offers a broad range of options for customizable dialogs, notifications, schedules, deferrals, and deadlines. In other words, `super` makes the macOS update experience better for both users and administrators.
