 AudioTee captures your Mac's system audio output and writes PCM encoded chunks of it to `stdout` at regular intervals, either in base64-encoded JSON (good for humans, easy on terminals) or binary (good for other programs). It uses the [Core Audio taps](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/coreaudio/capturing-system-audio-with-core-audio-taps) API introduced in macOS 14.2 (released in December 2023). You can do whatever you want with this audio - stream it somewhere else, save it to disk, visualize it, etc.
 
-By default, it taps the audio output from **all** running process and selects the most appropriate audio chunk output format to use based on the presence of a tty. Tap output is forced to `mono` (not configurable) and preserves your output device's sample rate unless you pass a `--convert-to` flag. Only the default output device is currently supported.

 My original (and so far only) use case is streaming audio to a parent process which communicates with a realtime ASR service, so AudioTee makes some design decisions you might not agree with. Open an issue or a PR and we can talk about them. I'm also no Swift developer, so contributions improving codebase idioms and general hygiene are welcome.
