utiluti 1.2
I have also released an update to my CLI tool to set default apps for urls and file types (uniform type identifiers/UTI).
utiluti1.2 adds amanageverb which can read a list of default app assignments from plist files or a configuration profile. You can see the documentation for the newmanageverb here and download the latest pkg installer here.Note, that while you can set the default browser with
utiluti, whether you are using themanageoption or not, the system will prompt the user to confirm the new default browser.

Great update, looking forward to trying it out for certain sites that I want hard-coded to open in specific browsers.
Except for those few sites, I always want the option to open something I've clicked on in an app of my choice, so my system default is never a browser, it’s always a browser picker.
On Sonoma I use Browsersaurus by Will Stone, and on High Sierra I use Choose Wisely by Christoph Zirkelbach. When I have to use Windows I use BrowserPicker, which works fine.
