Important: Do not tick a checkbox if you haven’t performed its action. Honesty is indispensable for a smooth review process.

In the following questions <cask> is the token of the cask you're submitting.

After making any changes to a cask, existing or new, verify:

Additionally, if adding a new cask:

  • Named the cask according to the token reference.
  • Checked the cask was not already refused (add your cask's name to the end of the search field).
  • brew audit --cask --new <cask> worked successfully.
  • HOMEBREW_NO_INSTALL_FROM_API=1 brew install --cask <cask> worked successfully.
  • brew uninstall --cask <cask> worked successfully.

developer.arm.com URLs return an HTML challenge page outside of a browser (even if the URL isn't for an HTML page), so related URLs are broken in the arm-performance-libraries and gcc-aarch64-embedded casks (gcc-arm-embedded is being handled in #238913). This adds a user_agent argument to the main cask url that uses a generic curl user agent string, as this is the only user agent that works (the default user agent and :browser/:fake don't work).

The livecheck block is also failing but we're not yet able to set the user agent in that context (I have a forthcoming PR for that). I will update related livecheck blocks if/when that feature becomes available in the future. For now, I've set this to skip livecheck on CI, so we can merge these changes.
