Open Science v0.1.0

First public release of Open Science — an open, local-first AI workbench for scientists.

System requirements: macOS 13 Ventura or later · Windows 10/11 (x64). The bundled OpenCode runtime does not run on macOS 12 or older — the app window opens but never connects.

Install notes (unsigned builds)

These builds are not code-signed yet — a one-time step per install is needed.

macOS — "Open Science is damaged and can't be opened"

Gatekeeper reports downloaded unsigned apps as damaged (right-click → Open does not bypass it). To fix:

1. Open the .dmg and drag Open Science into Applications.
2. Open Terminal (Spotlight → type "Terminal") and run:

   xattr -cr "/Applications/Open Science.app"

   This only removes the quarantine flag macOS puts on files downloaded from the internet.
3. Launch Open Science from Applications as usual.

Windows — SmartScreen

If SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC", click More info → Run anyway.

Highlights

• Bundled OpenCode agent runtime (works out of the box via free gateway models; bring your own API key or import your OpenCode login for stronger models).
• Isolated Jupyter environment provisioned on demand (bundled uv).
• Science skill packs, provenance capture (JSONL), and a built-in demo project.
• Safety defaults: workspace-scoped agent access, manual approval for command execution.
