Build Provenance (Recommended)

All release artifacts are signed with GitHub Attestations. Verify authenticity using the GitHub CLI:

# Verify any downloaded artifact (most secure)
gh attestation verify <filename> --repo emilyst/stardrift

# Example for macOS DMG
gh attestation verify stardrift-*.dmg --repo emilyst/stardrift

# Example for Linux binary
gh attestation verify stardrift-*.tar.gz --repo emilyst/stardrift

This verifies the artifact was built by GitHub Actions from this repository's source code.

Security Notices

macOS

The macOS binaries are ad-hoc signed but not notarized. On macOS Sequoia (15.x) and later:

Recommended method:

1. First attempt: Double-click the app/DMG (or run the binary) - you'll see a warning that it cannot be opened
2. Allow the app: Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security
3. Scroll down: Find the "Open Anyway" button for Stardrift (appears for ~1 hour after first attempt)
4. Confirm: Click "Open Anyway", enter your password, then click "Open" in the final dialog

Alternative for command-line users:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /path/to/stardrift

Note: This requires an admin account. If it fails with "Operation not permitted", grant Terminal Full Disk Access in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Full Disk Access

Note: The right-click → "Open" bypass no longer works in macOS Sequoia.

Windows

Windows SmartScreen may warn about the executable. To run:

1. Click "More info" on the SmartScreen dialog
2. Click "Run anyway"
