Plist Drift Detector

A local macOS MCP server that compares loaded launchd labels with the plists in a config directory to detect drift.

What you can do

• Compare loaded launchd labels from launchctl list against the source-of-truth plists kept in a config directory.
• Surface drift between what is actually loaded and what the plists declare.
• Run the comparison on a recurring six-hour schedule rather than only on request.

When to use it

Useful on macOS machines where launchd jobs are managed from a set of plists and you want an assistant to notice when the running state no longer matches that source of truth.

Requirements

Runs as a local process on the user's machine over stdio, desktop only. It relies on macOS launchctl and a config directory of plists; no packages, environment variables, headers or authentication are declared.
