# Every app and tool Orchard installs on your Mac

> A complete list of every GUI app, CLI tool, and AI assistant that Orchard installs on your Mac, including how each one is installed.

Orchard installs a curated set of developer tools and productivity applications automatically during provisioning. You don't need to download anything manually — every application listed on this page is installed and ready to use the first time you run `provision.sh`. Applications are installed through Homebrew Cask, the Homebrew package manager, or directly from the source, depending on what each tool requires.

## GUI applications

These applications are installed via [Homebrew Cask](https://formulae.brew.sh/cask/), which downloads and installs macOS `.app` bundles.
