-    NetBird MDM preferences (macOS) — bare plist for MDM platforms that
-    accept a managed-preferences plist tied to a bundle identifier
-    (e.g. JumpCloud "Mac Application Custom Settings", Mosyle "Custom
-    Settings", Jamf "Application & Custom Settings" → External
-    Application).
-
-    Bundle identifier (preference domain): io.netbird.client
-
-    The MDM provider will wrap this plist into a Configuration Profile
-    payload of type com.apple.ManagedClient.preferences and push it to
-    target devices via the Apple MDM protocol. The OS materializes the
-    final file at:
-        /Library/Managed Preferences/io.netbird.client.plist
-    which is what the NetBird daemon's client/mdm/policy_darwin.go
-    loader reads on every 1-minute MDM reload tick.
-
-    For MDM platforms that expect a full Configuration Profile instead
-    of a bare plist (Custom Configuration Profile / .mobileconfig upload),
-    use docs/netbird-macos.mobileconfig — same keys, additional Payload*
-    envelope.
-
-    Editing this file:
-      - Remove or comment out any key you do NOT want to enforce. The
-        daemon treats an absent key as "no enforcement" for that field.
-      - Keep the document well-formed XML. Validate locally with:
-            plutil -lint docs/io.netbird.client.plist
-      - Keys are camelCase; values are typed (<string>, <true/>, <false/>,
-        <integer>). See docs/src/pages/client/mdm-integration.mdx (the
-        public docs page) for the full reference.
-
-    Persistence caveat:
-      macOS wipes /Library/Managed Preferences/ at every boot on
-      devices that are NOT MDM-enrolled. This plist only sticks across
-      reboots when delivered through a real MDM channel. For local
-      testing on an un-enrolled host, write the file manually as root
-      and accept it will not survive the next boot.

-    NetBird MDM configuration profile (macOS).

-    Wraps a `com.apple.ManagedClient.preferences` payload that pushes the
-    NetBird MDM policy into:
-        /Library/Managed Preferences/io.netbird.client.plist
-
-    Read at runtime by the netbird daemon's macOS loader
-    (client/mdm/policy_darwin.go — Phase 2). Key names match the canonical

-    constants in client/mdm/policy.go.
-
-    Bundle identifier: io.netbird.client
-        (confirm against the signed pkg before fleet roll-out)
-
-    Distribution:
-      - sign with `productsign --sign "Developer ID Installer: ..." ...`
-        before fleet roll-out (Apple-Configurator-2 won't install an
-        unsigned profile on Sonoma+ without user override).
-      - For local dev install: `sudo profiles install -path netbird-macos.mobileconfig`.
-      - For MDM (Jamf/Kandji/Mosyle/Intune): upload as a Custom Profile.
-
-    Editing:
-      - Replace UUID placeholders below with fresh UUIDs (`uuidgen` on
-        macOS) when forking this template for a real fleet — each
-        deployment should have unique UUIDs so the OS treats it as a
-        distinct profile.
-      - Tune the PayloadContent values to the policy you want to enforce.
-      - Remove any key you do NOT want to enforce (the daemon treats an
-        absent key as "no enforcement" for that field).
-
-    iOS note:
-      This file is macOS-specific. iOS uses managed app config via
-      UserDefaults[com.apple.configuration.managed] under a different
-      payload type (com.apple.app.configuration.managed); the wrapper
-      structure is the same but the inner payload dictionary differs.
-      See docs/netbird-ios.mobileconfig (Phase 5) when shipped.

-#
-# SYNOPSIS
-#   Push the NetBird MDM policy to a macOS device via JumpCloud Commands.
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#   This is the macOS counterpart of docs/netbird-policy.reg.ps1.
-#   It writes the values declared in the "POLICY VALUES" block below to
-#   the managed-preferences plist that the NetBird daemon's
-#   client/mdm/policy_darwin.go loader reads on every 1-minute MDM
-#   reload tick:
-#
-#       /Library/Managed Preferences/io.netbird.client.plist
-#
-#   Once the plist lands, the daemon picks up the new values without
-#   restart (the ticker calls Config.apply() → applyMDMPolicy() and
-#   restarts the engine on diff).
-#
-# DEPLOYMENT (JumpCloud)
-#   1. Admin Console -> Device Management -> Commands -> +.
-#   2. Type: Mac, Shell, Run as: root.
-#   3. Paste this file verbatim into the command body.

-#   macOS wipes /Library/Managed Preferences/ at every boot on devices
-#   that are NOT MDM-enrolled. For a persistent fleet rollout, push the
-#   companion docs/netbird-macos.mobileconfig as a Custom Configuration
-#   Profile (Admin Console -> MDM -> Mac Custom Configuration Profiles)
-#   instead of this script. Use this script when:
-#     - the device is MDM-enrolled (file survives reboots), or
-#     - you need a one-shot test push before reboot, or
-#     - you orchestrate via JumpCloud Commands and want the same
-#       variable-driven workflow as the Windows .ps1 sibling.
-#
-# IDEMPOTENCY: re-running with the same values is a no-op from the
-# daemon's point of view (the 1-minute reload ticker diff returns empty).
-#
-# SECURITY: PreSharedKey is redacted in this script's log output.

-#requires -Version 5.1
-<#
-.SYNOPSIS
-  Push the NetBird MDM policy to a Windows device via JumpCloud Commands
-  by importing a sidecar netbird-policy.reg file.
-
-.DESCRIPTION
-  Windows counterpart of docs/netbird-macos.sh. Outcome:
-  HKLM\Software\Policies\NetBird populated from the attached
-  netbird-policy.reg file, daemon picks up the change via the
-  1-minute MDM reload ticker.
-
-  Deployment:
-    1. Admin Console -> Device Management -> Commands -> +.
-    2. Type: Windows PowerShell. Run as: SYSTEM.
-    3. Paste this file verbatim into the command body.
-    4. In the same command, attach `netbird-policy.reg` as a file.
-       JumpCloud copies attached files into the command's working
-       directory before invoking the script, so `$PSScriptRoot` or
-       Get-Location resolves to where the .reg lives.
-    5. Bind to the target system group, save, run.
-
-  Producing the .reg file:
-    On a reference machine, after configuring the policy values either
-    via gpedit (GPO) or manual `reg add`, export with:
-
-        reg export "HKLM\Software\Policies\NetBird" netbird-policy.reg /y
-
-    Then attach the resulting file to the JumpCloud command.
-
-  Semantics:
-    - The script nukes the existing HKLM\Software\Policies\NetBird key
-      before importing the .reg, so the .reg is the SINGLE SOURCE OF
-      TRUTH. Any value present in the registry but absent from the .reg
-      is removed. This is what an MDM admin almost always wants.
-    - Setting the .reg to an empty (header-only) file effectively unsets
-      the policy.
-
-  Idempotency: re-running the script with the same .reg is a no-op from
-  the daemon's perspective (values identical → 1-min ticker sees no
-  diff → engine not restarted).
-
-  Exit codes: 0 = success; 1 = .reg missing or reg.exe error.
