Auto-mount another Mac's SMB shares on macOS at login and keep them mounted (LaunchAgent + NetFS), over Tailscale or LAN, authenticating with the shared Apple ID (Kerberos LKDC) so no password is stored. Use when mounting a Mac's shares automatically; when an SMB connection to a Mac prompts for a password or returns "Authentication error" despite the right password; when a mount agent keeps declaring healthy mounts stale; or when replacing local Dropbox/Google Drive sync clients with mounts of…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Auto-mount a Mac's SMB shares Deploys `scripts/mount-smb-shares.sh` behind a LaunchAgent on the **client** Mac so the **server** Mac's shares sit at `/Volumes/<share>` after login and come back by themselves after sleep, network changes and server hiccups. Triggers: login, every 300 s, `/var/run/resolv.conf` changes, and every power-state change (`com.apple.powermanagement.systempowerstate`, the same event Time Machine's helper wakes on) so a wake from sleep remounts within seconds instead of waiting for the interval — which launchd stretches well past 5 min on battery. The script exits at once when the lid is closed, so dark wakes cost nothing. Both Macs signed into the same Apple ID is the normal case, and then no password exists anywhere in the setup. ## Facts every step rests on - **Mounts happen at login, not boot.** NetFS needs the Aqua session (and, with FileVault, the unlocked login keychain), so the agent lives in `gui/<uid>`. A LaunchDaemon would mount as root, outside the user's namespace. With auto-login on and FileVault off, login follows boot unattended. …

How to install
mdr add soulmachine/skills/mac-smb-automount@sha256:df19de8e3b7c4ea1The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260909.1c29a7e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
