Unsigned build — Apple notarization is intentionally skipped.
On first launch macOS Gatekeeper will block it; open it once via
right-click → Open (macOS 12–14) or System Settings → Privacy
& Security → Open Anyway (macOS 15+), or clear quarantine:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Curio.app"

Install via Homebrew: brew install --cask alexnodeland/tap/curio

0.1.0 — 2026-07-07

First public release — a complete, local-first desktop reader.

Added

  • Reading core. Subscribe to RSS/Atom feeds (with URL autodiscovery),
    refresh per-feed or all-at-once with health tracking and backoff, and read
    in a three-pane reader. On-demand full-article readability extraction,
    mark-as-read-on-open, opt-in mark-as-read-on-scroll, and next-unread
    navigation across feeds.
  • State, event-sourced with negation events: read/unread, star,
    read-later, archive.
  • Folders as /-path tags, rendered as a nested tree with a folder
    filter, drag-to-reorder, and move/rename.
  • Full-text search (SQLite FTS5).
  • Import / export. OPML in and out, plus refugee importers for Pocket,
    Instapaper and Readwise     CSV exports (saved articles become read-later
    items with their tags).
  • Save to your notes. Named destination directories and idempotent
    promotion of an article to a markdown note per the curio.frontmatter.v1
    contract, with a byte-preserved managed region.
  • Behavioral event log (curio.events.v1): append-only JSONL under
    .curio/events/, never committed to git, built for downstream replay.
  • Appearance & reading: 9 themes plus System, adjustable reading
    typography (font, size, line height, measure), and RSS-native Reddit /
    YouTube layouts (zero enrichment; nothing loads from the network until you
    click).
  • Accessibility: modal focus-trap with an inert background, a skip link
    and <main> landmark, a listbox article list with aria-activedescendant
    and Arrow/Home/End navigation, labelled reader-toolbar controls, live-region
    toasts, and WCAG-AA text contrast across every theme (gated by a test).
  • Internationalization: 8 fully translated locales — English, Español,
    Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Polski, 简体中文 (Simplified Mandarin), and
    廣東話 (Cantonese) — with English fallback and full-coverage gating.
  • Privacy by default: no telemetry, no phone-home; the only outbound
    traffic is fetching the feeds you subscribed to. Remote media and the
    Google favicon fallback are opt-in.

Distribution

  • Unsigned macOS Homebrew cask (brew install --cask alexnodeland/tap/curio)
    and a downloadable .dmg from the GitHub release. The app is not signed
    or notarized     — open it once via right-click → Open (or System Settings →
    Privacy & Security → Open Anyway on macOS 15+). Windows and Linux bundles
    are built nightly and available as artifacts, but are not yet a shipped
    channel.
