Deploy Karabiner Elements to Microsoft Intune
karabiner-elements.pqrs.orgmacOSversion 16.3.0
Karabiner Elements is in the PatchBee catalog as a macOS app from karabiner-elements.pqrs.org, synced from Homebrew casks. Pick it in the App Library and PatchBee writes the deployment plan below, builds the package, publishes it to your Intune tenant and assigns it to the Entra groups you choose. New versions then follow through your update rings.
The plan PatchBee writes
Karabiner Elements as an Intune app
The standard form for a DMG disk image (ARM64, scope decided at plan time). The real plan is generated from the installer when you package, and shown in full before anything is published; every field can be changed.
- Intune app type
- macOS app (DMG)
- Install
- No command: Intune mounts the image and copies the app into /Applications.
- Uninstall
- The app bundle is removed from /Applications.
- Detection
- Bundle identifier. org.pqrs.Karabiner-DriverKit-VirtualHIDDevice, version 16.3.0 or newer.
- Requirements
- ARM64
Installers in version 16.3.0
| Architecture | Type | Scope | Hash |
|---|---|---|---|
| ARM64 | DMG disk image | scope decided at plan time | SHA-256 published |
PatchBee downloads the installer from the publisher's own URL and verifies its SHA-256 against the catalog before packaging. "None published" means the source carries no hash for this download, so that check has nothing to compare against; packaging still works.

How this becomes an app in your tenant
Sign in with your Microsoft work account and connect your Intune tenant once. Find Karabiner Elements in the App Library, open its plan (the commands, detection rule and requirements above, editable) and publish: PatchBee downloads and verifies the installer, builds the package, creates the Intune app and assigns your groups. When karabiner-elements.pqrs.org ships a new version, PatchBee detects it and rolls it out through your rings, with supersedence and rollback.
