Overview

The RMMMax Mac OSX Agent Service is a lightweight Python 3 daemon that connects a Mac machine to the RMMMax platform. It runs as a background service, checks in with the RMMMax API every five minutes, receives commands dispatched from the platform, executes them, and reports results back. It requires no external Python packages — only the Python 3 standard library.

It is the Mac equivalent of the Windows RMMMax Agent Service and communicates with the same backend API endpoints.
