I added this because there are other categories other than Accessibility, and I guess other apps might use different ones:

<<~EOS
#{@cask} is not signed and requires Accessibility access,
so you will need to re-grant Accessibility access every time the app is updated.

Enable or re-enable it in:
System Preferences → Security & Privacy → Privacy -> #{access}

I considered actually running open /System/Library/PreferencePanes/Security.prefPane to open the pane for the user, but that would get run even if you run brew info AIUI, so decided against it.

Also didn't document that as having two ways to do the first step is needlessly confusing.

To re-enable untick and retick #{@cask}.app.

To use #{@cask}, you may need to add the #{path} directory
