About:
This package provides additional guest agent binaries for the Lima virtual machine manager, supplementing the default set.

It is useful for users who need more advanced host-guest interaction capabilities beyond the core Lima functionality.
Key Features:
  • Provides extra guest agent binaries for Lima
  • Enables advanced host-guest integration features
  • Simplifies filesystem sharing and port forwarding
  • Extends Lima's core functionality
Use Cases:
  • Setting up seamless file sharing between macOS and Lima VMs
  • Automating network port forwarding for containerized development environments
  • Enhancing Lima VMs with additional system-level integrations
Alternatives:
  • lima – Core package; this formula provides additional agents not included in the main distribution.
  • multipass – Alternative VM manager with built-in file sharing, but Lima is often preferred for its macOS-native integration.
