Getting a "can't verify the developer" warning?
If you see a warning on first launch, go to System Settings > Privacy & Security and click "Open Anyway". Open source software usually isn't signed with an Apple developer certificate, which is normal.
Clicking "Download" takes you to a source confirmation page first; the download starts after confirmation.

- Users who use local models such as Ollama and LM Studio and prefer desktop applications.
- Users who need to handle documents, translation, and code, and want visualizations such as Mermaid.
- Technical users interested in extension capabilities like MCP and agents.
Who it's not for
- Users who need iOS/Android mobile versions (currently still in planning).
- Organizations that require enterprise-level centralized management, employee permission controls, or private deployment (these are part of the paid enterprise edition).
- Users who cannot accept the AGPL-3.0 open source license terms.
