bosectl is a free, open-source tool that controls supported Bose headphones' noise cancellation, EQ, spatial audio, and button mapping directly from Linux or macOS, using Bose's own reverse-engineered Bluetooth protocol — no app, cloud account, or Windows required. It's built for Linux and macOS users whose Bose headphones otherwise have no official desktop control app.
