CoreInject (successor to InjectLib) is a macOS application injection and binary-patching tool by QiuChenly, distributed alongside a community 'AppStore' for sharing pre-patched apps. It supports injecting code into macOS applications and, more recently, IPA files on iOS.

Use cases

• inject dylibs into macOS applications
• patch Mach-O binaries to modify app behavior
• bypass code signature checks on macOS apps
• inject tweaks into iOS IPA files
• distribute and update patched apps from a community store

When to choose

• you need to modify or extend third-party macOS apps via code injection on Apple Silicon or Intel Macs
• you want a maintained tool with frequent releases and an integrated updater
• you also need IPA injection support for iOS apps

When to avoid

• you need a legitimate plugin/signing framework for your own apps - use standard code signing and extension APIs instead
• you cannot accept the legal and ethical risks of modifying commercial software
• you need something auditable and minimal - the project bundles a community app store and third-party hosted services
