v0.2.0
f5ae76f

The first release hardened by a real sandboxed consumer — integration-tested
inside a sandboxed menu-bar app, which surfaced three real bugs, all fixed here.

Fixed

  • Sandbox-safe relaunch. quitAndReopen() spawned a detached /bin/sh helper, which the App Sandbox forbids — sandboxed apps quit and never relaunched. Sandboxed apps now relaunch via LaunchServices (NSWorkspace.openApplication, createsNewApplicationInstance), terminating only once the new instance is underway; on failure they stay running. Non-sandboxed behavior is unchanged. Sandboxed apps marked LSMultipleInstancesProhibited (no relaunch path exists) stay running — the grant applies on the next manual restart.
  • Reliable sandbox detection. The APP_SANDBOX_CONTAINER_ID env var is not reliably present in sandboxed processes; detection now reads the com.apple.security.app-sandbox entitlement from the process's own code signature (SecTaskCopyValueForEntitlement), with a container-home fallback. Every relaunch path logs via os.log (subsystem PermissionPilot, category relaunch) so field failures are diagnosable with log show.
  • "Open the … list" always opens the pane. The manual-add walkthrough's step-1 button called request() — for Accessibility that's the one-shot AX prompt, so every later click was a silent no-op. It now deep-links to the pane, and the Accessibility request path also falls back to opening the pane when the prompt is spent (mirroring Screen Recording).
  • Wizard stays visible after a quit-and-reopen handoff (orderFrontRegardless() — cooperative activation on macOS 14+ can deny activation right after the old instance exits).

Added

  • OnboardingPresenter.front() — deminiaturize + re-front an already-presented wizard.
  • PermissionManager.relaunchAvailable — false when no relaunch path exists (sandboxed + LSMultipleInstancesProhibited); the relaunch banner hides its "Quit & Reopen" button instead of rendering a dead control.
  • OnboardingConfiguration.showsWelcomeStep / showsDoneStep (omit wizard screens) and colorScheme (pin light/dark).
  • Localization — every user-facing string is translatable (English base; add a <lang>.lproj per target).
  • Downloadable demo installers (.pkg recommended, .dmg alternative), README visuals, CI, CHANGELOG/CONTRIBUTING.
  • Regression tests for the relaunch decisions (33 tests total).
