We’ve made it easier and safer to work with install scripts in Software → App templates by adding clear, contextual guidance right where you edit scripts.

What’s new

• Contextual warning/attention block in script editor
  When you configure scripts in certain app templates, you’ll now see an inline notice near the script editor that:

  • Highlights required variables or values you need to replace (for example, API keys or tenant IDs)

  • Provides template-specific guidance so you know exactly what to update before deployment

  • Uses our standard info/warning styling so it’s easy to spot and understand

• Applied to key security integrations
  The new script guidance is live in:

  • post-install script for macOS, Windows, and Linux

• Frontend-only, no behavior change to execution

  • This update is purely UX/UI: it improves how scripts are presented and configured.

  • Script execution remains the same; Swif’s scripting already runs with the required privileges and does not require sudo in your scripts.

Why this matters

• Reduces configuration errors caused by hardcoded placeholders.

• Makes it clearer which values must be customized per environment.

• Speeds up onboarding to new app templates by surfacing “what you need to change” right where you edit scripts.
