macOS Gatekeeper

The GUI release candidate targets macOS 13 or later. Windows GUI and SmartScreen support are deferred. Do not substitute an older, unsigned, differently configured, or wrong-architecture installer for an approved exact artifact.

What a release artifact must show

A release artifact needs current evidence of exact committed source, manifest/checksum, architecture, Developer ID signing, hardened runtime, notarization, stapling, Gatekeeper, and a quarantined-DMG installed-copy journey. This source document does not claim that evidence exists.

If you are an authorized test operator

Do not normalize a Gatekeeper warning for an unverified build. Confirm the artifact source and the operator’s signed-build instructions before opening it. A warning is a release-blocking result to record for the release process, not a customer workaround to publish.

You can delete the Gmail app password in Google Account security settings and choose Forget in the app. This affects future IMAP access, not recovered local photos or a purchase entitlement. See Access was revoked.
