# pyobjc-framework-ExecutionPolicy — Wrappers for the framework ExecutionPolicy on macOS

License: permissive · Maintenance: active · Downloads: 649.5K/mo

## What it is and what it does

This package wraps Apple's ExecutionPolicy framework for use from Python, allowing developers on macOS to call native ExecutionPolicy APIs through Python code. It is part of the larger PyObjC project, which provides bindings for macOS Cocoa frameworks. The wrapper itself does not include inline documentation; users must consult Apple's framework documentation and PyObjC's general translation guides to understand how to use the underlying APIs.

The package depends on pyobjc-core and pyobjc-framework-Cocoa and supports Python 3.10 through 3.15, including free-threading builds. It is intended for developers building macOS-specific applications or tools that need to interact with execution policies at the system level.

Use it for:

- Building macOS security or system administration tools that need to query or manage execution policies.
- Integrating Python scripts with macOS system frameworks for policy-aware application behavior.
- Developing cross-framework macOS applications where ExecutionPolicy integration is required.
- Creating automation or monitoring tools that interact with macOS security and execution controls.

## Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts above — verify before relying.

Provides Python bindings for macOS's ExecutionPolicy framework, enabling Python code to interact with execution policies on macOS 10.15 and later.

Yes, if you are developing on macOS and need ExecutionPolicy framework access from Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, and installs with low friction. However, it is only useful on macOS 10.15+ and requires Python 3.10+; it is not portable to other operating systems.

## Install

pip install pyobjc-framework-executionpolicy
uv add pyobjc-framework-executionpolicy
poetry add pyobjc-framework-executionpolicy

## Installing pyobjc-framework-ExecutionPolicy

Before you install: Low friction installation with a pure-wheel distribution. Actively maintained as of 3 days ago with recent commits and broad Python 3.10+ support across current versions.

License in practice: MIT license permits unrestricted use, modification, and distribution with only attribution required—no restrictions on commercial or proprietary use.

Quickstart:

pip install pyobjc-framework-executionpolicy

from ExecutionPolicy import *
# Access ExecutionPolicy framework classes and methods

Requires macOS 10.15 or later and Python 3.10+; only runs on macOS systems.

Verify before relying:

- Whether ExecutionPolicy framework APIs are documented in Apple's official macOS SDK documentation.
- Specific use cases or workflows where this framework is commonly applied in production.
- Whether the wrapper covers the full ExecutionPolicy API surface or a subset.
