Manual allow or disallow privacy and security service permission on MacOS

tccp.md

SIP must be disabled to get tccplus working.

TESTED on MBP M1 Pro, MacOS Ventura

STEP 1

Download : https://github.com/jslegendre/tccplus/releases/tag/1.0

Because tccplus need bundleID, you can get it by running this command:

grep 'BundleIdent' -A 1 /Applications/CleanShot\ X.app/Contents/Info.plist

OR

grep 'BundleIdent' -A 1 /Applications/<DRAG & DROP YOUR APP HERE>/Contents/Info.plist

STEP 2

tccplus add <SERVICE_NAME> <BUNDLE_ID>

/Users/sayib/Downloads/tccplus add Microphone pl.maketheweb.cleanshotx

or to remove:

tccplus reset <SERVICE_NAME> <BUNDLE_ID>

/Users/sayib/Downloads/tccplus reset Microphone pl.maketheweb.cleanshotx

STEP 3

codesign -dr - /Applications/CleanShot\ X.app

Now run your app.

Alternative way is to make an alias so you dont have to execute 2 commands everytime you want to add/remove permission. Use this script:

addPermission() {
    if [ $# -ne 2 ]; then
        echo "Missing parameter! e.g: 'addPermission <SERVICE> <APPLICATION>'"
    elif [[ ! -d "$2" || ! "$2" =~ \.app$ ]]; then
        echo "Invalid application path! The second argument must be a valid directory ending with '.app'."
    else
        v=$(osascript -e "id of app \"$2\"")
        ~/Downloads/tccplus add "$1" "$v"
    fi
}

I made 2 variables $1 and $v, you can change to any letter. First one to get input <SERVICE> and the second to get <APPLICATION> location. You can also change the function name.

• Change : ~/Downloads/tccplus to your tccplus location
• Useage: addPermission Microphone
