Feature Request: Support Homebrew installation #103

Hello,

I would like to request the addition of a Homebrew formula (brew install shai) as an alternative installation method.
Currently, the installation relies on curl piping to a shell script. While this works for many users, it often causes issues in large corporate environments where strict proxy configurations and SSL inspection are in place.

Why this is important:

  • Enterprise Repository Integration: Many enterprise artifact managers have native support for proxying Homebrew taps and bottles. This allows companies to mirror the installation sources reliability.
  • Security & Compliance: By using a package manager proxy, organizations can automatically scan binaries for vulnerabilities before they reach the developer's machine. This provides a guarantee on what is being downloaded and executed, which is far harder to enforce with direct curl scripts.

Adding a simple Tap or submitting a formula to Homebrew Core would greatly facilitate adoption in enterprise contexts.
Thank you for considering this request!
