  • New vector app icon.
  • Settings uses the standard macOS toolbar tabs, with the window title following
    the selected tab.
  • A stored App Attest key that the Mac can no longer sign with is replaced
    automatically, instead of leaving lookups stuck on "couldn't verify this app".
  • Updating restarts the privileged helper, so the new process protections take
    effect without a reboot.
  • Home window, expanded diagnosis cards, and consistent settings-window navigation.
  • Energy-aware wakeup checks and conservative GPU activity descriptions: driver
    counters are a relative activity index, not percent of whole-GPU capacity or
    evidence of a continuously sustained cause.
  • Release configuration restrictions and explicit contribution consent.
  • Shared process safety guidance requires human review; unreviewed research
    remains labeled as research.
  • Release tooling requires explicit artifacts and provisioning, and verifies the
    public download before publishing its update feed.
  • Network documentation distinguishes contribution, discovery, account-linked
    help, and inactive Private Cloud Compute.
  • Paid Get Help is retry-safe: a pending request is resent with the same
    idempotency key, so retrying never charges twice.
  • App Attest registration is scoped to each server. Existing installs register
    once more after updating; registrations made against another server are no
    longer trusted.
  • Detection: rate rules use time-weighted recent windows, memory Verify checks
    for continued growth, and chronic CPU alerts need a warm baseline plus current
    activity, so steady legitimate work raises fewer alerts.
  • Lookup errors say what failed (service status, network, timeout) instead of a
    generic message.
  • Sparkle is pinned to 2.9.4.
  • Homebrew service checks no longer hang when brew prints more than a pipe
    buffer of output.
  • Enabling system-wide monitoring opens Login Items & Extensions when macOS
    needs approval, and the monitoring status is correct from launch.
  • The root helper refuses to stop more core system services (for example
    tccd, amfid, sshd, mDNSResponder and configd).
  • The menu-bar accessibility label says "anomalies" instead of "anomalyies".
  • Thanks to @fallenmaverick (PR #6) for reporting several of these.
