Description

MacBook fan behavior can be controlled by a Linux daemon to improve cooling management on supported hardware. It is useful when default fan handling is not adequate for temperature, noise, or workload needs.

Fan control affects real thermal safety. Incorrect settings can cause overheating, noise, or hardware stress, so monitor temperatures and keep a recovery path before changing daemon configuration.

How to run
