A small bash script that prints the password of the Wi-Fi network you're currently connected to, or a specified SSID, on macOS. It can be installed via Homebrew, bpkg, zsh plugin managers, or curl.
Use cases
- quickly share the wifi password with guests
- retrieve the password of the network i'm connected to
- look up a saved wifi password by ssid
- pipe the wifi password to clipboard with pbcopy
When to choose
- you're on macOS and need the current Wi-Fi password from the terminal
- you want a tiny zero-dependency shell script
When to avoid
- you're on Windows or Linux (use the Windows fork or other tools)
- you need to manage or change Wi-Fi settings, not just read passwords
