Hotfix Overview

This is a small patch release that addresses a macOS Gatekeeper issue where downloading the .dmg via a web browser would cause macOS to incorrectly flag the app bundle as "damaged" due to quarantine attributes.

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • Gatekeeper Signing: The DMG packaging pipeline has been updated to automatically strip extended attributes and apply an ad-hoc cryptographic signature to the app bundle before distribution.

📦 Installation

  1. Download MacBenchForge_v2.1.1_AppleSilicon.dmg below.
  2. Mount the volume and drag MacBenchForge to your Applications directory.
  3. Requirement: Ensure llama.cpp is installed via Homebrew (brew install llama.cpp) prior to executing benchmarks.

Note for macOS Users:
Because this tool is open-source and relies on an ad-hoc signature, macOS might warn you that it's from an "unidentified developer" when you first open it.
To bypass this, open your Applications folder, Right-Click (or Control-Click) on MacBenchForge.app, and select Open. You only need to do this once!

Alternatively, you can clear the quarantine flag via terminal:
xattr -cr /Applications/MacBenchForge.app
