CoreTend 0.9.1-rc.5
Pre-releaseCoreTend 0.9.1-rc.5 (release candidate)
This release candidate supersedes 0.9.1-rc.4. It is not a stable 1.0, and
rc.4 remains unchanged in the release history.
Review, confirm, then use the Trash
The former Dry Run product mode has been removed from the application, public
site, documentation and deterministic product fixture. Scanning remains
read-only. Cleanup, Smart Care, Duplicates, Applications, Leftovers, Privacy
Cleaner and Space Lens now show the reviewed selection and require explicit
confirmation before eligible items move to the macOS Trash. SafetyCore still
re-validates every approved path immediately before execution, protects system
roots and rejects symlink escapes.
The local database migration removes the retired preference. Old database
columns and rows are retained only for downgrade/data compatibility and are
not exposed by the current product API.
This release also normalizes the public English and French locale URLs to
/en and /fr, fixes the narrow Workflow layout, and keeps Support, release
metadata and downloads generated from one reviewed release record.
Distribution status
This Apple-silicon build is ad-hoc signed, has no Developer ID signature and is
not notarized. Copy CoreTend to /Applications, try opening it once, then use
System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway. Never disable
Gatekeeper globally or remove quarantine recursively. Developer ID signing and
notarization are planned for a later distribution update. CoreTend is not
currently available from the Mac App Store; an App Store edition remains only
a future study.
IntegrityCore remains the current read-only integrity implementation. The
retired ClamAV interface, process wrapper and scanner are not present.
