First public build.

Inkling watches your GitHub notifications, decides which ones actually need you,
and puts the rest in a Quiet pile with the reason it filtered them. Notifications
carry Snooze, Mute and Done buttons, so most triage happens without opening a
browser.

Installing

Download Inkling-0.1.0-arm64.dmg and drag Inkling to your Applications folder.

The first launch will say the developer can't be verified — the app is signed,
but not yet notarized by Apple. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security and
choose Open Anyway, or run:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Inkling.app

Setup then walks you through connecting GitHub, allowing notifications, and
choosing what's worth interrupting you for. Nothing is checked until that's done.

When macOS asks about notification style, choose Alerts rather than Banners.
Banners disappear after a few seconds, which isn't long enough to reach the
Snooze, Mute and Done buttons.

Requirements

  • A Mac with Apple Silicon, running macOS 12 or later
  • A GitHub account — the gh CLI if you have it, or a
    personal access token you paste in during setup

Known limits

  • Apple Silicon only. There is no Intel or universal build yet.
  • Not notarized, which is why macOS warns on first launch.
  • No automatic updates. The app checks for a newer release once a day and links
    here; downloading and replacing it is your move.
