Device Model Database

Device model database (friendly names)

The macOS companion app shows friendly Apple device model names in the Instances UI by mapping Apple model identifiers (e.g. iPad16,6, Mac16,6) to human-readable names.

The mapping is vendored as JSON under:

  • apps/macos/Sources/AgenticFlow Enterprise/Resources/DeviceModels/

Data source

We currently vendor the mapping from the MIT-licensed repository:

  • kyle-seongwoo-jun/apple-device-identifiers

To keep builds deterministic, the JSON files are pinned to specific upstream commits (recorded in apps/macos/Sources/AgenticFlow Enterprise/Resources/DeviceModels/NOTICE.md).

Updating the database

  1. Pick the upstream commits you want to pin to (one for iOS, one for macOS).
  2. Update the commit hashes in apps/macos/Sources/AgenticFlow Enterprise/Resources/DeviceModels/NOTICE.md.
  3. Re-download the JSON files, pinned to those commits:
Terminal window
IOS_COMMIT="<commit sha for ios-device-identifiers.json>"
MAC_COMMIT="<commit sha for mac-device-identifiers.json>"
curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kyle-seongwoo-jun/apple-device-identifiers/${IOS_COMMIT}/ios-device-identifiers.json" \
-o apps/macos/Sources/AgenticFlow Enterprise/Resources/DeviceModels/ios-device-identifiers.json
curl -fsSL "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kyle-seongwoo-jun/apple-device-identifiers/${MAC_COMMIT}/mac-device-identifiers.json" \
-o apps/macos/Sources/AgenticFlow Enterprise/Resources/DeviceModels/mac-device-identifiers.json
  1. Ensure apps/macos/Sources/AgenticFlow Enterprise/Resources/DeviceModels/LICENSE.apple-device-identifiers.txt still matches upstream (replace it if the upstream license changes).
  2. Verify the macOS app builds cleanly (no warnings):
Terminal window
swift build --package-path apps/macos
