macOS (Apple Silicon) — first release

Native menu bar app with the same popover as the Linux version: charge limit / Top Up / Discharge, a power-flow diagram that adds up (adapter · battery → system → CPU · GPU · SoC · memory · display · other), runtime estimate, temperatures, fans, power modes, apps using significant energy. English and Chinese.

Install (macOS 14+, Apple Silicon): open the DMG, drag ClearPower to Applications.
The app is not notarized yet, so on first launch go to System Settings › Privacy & Security › Open Anyway (or xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/ClearPower.app). Then click Install… in the popover: one administrator prompt installs the small charge-control helper. Full notes in macos/README.md.

Quit AlDente / batt / other charge limiters first — they fight over the same SMC keys.

Both frontends: sink nodes now show their name under the glyph and a hover tooltip explains what each node contains; clearer GPU and memory glyphs.

Fixed: bat_w was zeroed while discharging, so the system total never used the battery's own reading and the battery never appeared as a second source next to a weak adapter.
