Connect forgebot-mini to the floating Industry pool

Download the ForgeFX configuration

Open Carl’s Slack setup post and download the attached services-config.json. Use the attachment, not a hand-built URL or a copied server address.

Open canonical setup post and attachment

Quit Unity completely

Close every Unity Editor window and fully quit Unity Hub. Hub and the Licensing Client must restart before a changed services configuration is recognized.

osascript -e 'quit app "Unity Hub"' 2>/dev/null || true
pkill -x Unity 2>/dev/null || true

Validate without exposing the endpoint

Assuming Slack saved the attachment in Downloads:

CONFIG="$HOME/Downloads/services-config.json"
node -e 'JSON.parse(require("node:fs").readFileSync(process.argv[1],"utf8")); console.log("valid JSON")' "$CONFIG"

Back up and install the file

The official macOS client path is system-wide and requires administrator approval.

DEST='/Library/Application Support/Unity/config'
sudo install -d -m 0755 "$DEST"
if [ -f "$DEST/services-config.json" ]; then
  sudo cp "$DEST/services-config.json" "$DEST/services-config.json.backup-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)"
fi
sudo install -m 0644 "$CONFIG" "$DEST/services-config.json"

Restart Hub and acquire a floating lease

Open Unity Hub again, then use the beta CLI. The installed CLI does not expose a license server add command; client configuration is file-based.

open -a "Unity Hub"
~/.unity/bin/unity license server status --format json
~/.unity/bin/unity license activate --floating --format json --non-interactive
~/.unity/bin/unity license status --format json

Prove real Editor use

Account sign-in and server reachability are not proof. Open a real project with Editor 6000.1.1f1, then run the new Pipeline workflow.

~/.unity/bin/unity open /absolute/path/to/project
cd /absolute/path/to/project
~/.unity/bin/unity auth login
~/.unity/bin/unity pipeline install
~/.unity/bin/unity pipeline list
~/.unity/bin/unity command

Success means the Editor opens under Unity Industry, Pipeline: Installed appears, and unity command lists commands from the running Editor.

Release the seat when finished

Close every Unity Editor instance. The floating lease is held while an Editor is open and returns to the pool when the last Editor closes. Keep Unity closed when not actively testing.
