Signing, Gatekeeper, and notarization checks run in
GitHub Actions via scripts/ci-verify-macos-signature.sh on macos-latest.
This list is the interactive behavior that CI cannot click through.
Record the macOS version, architecture, and whether the build was a signed DMG. Keystrokes are not recorded.
- Fresh signed install launches Electron and
p2p.kiwi Sidecar. No Accessibility or Input Monitoring prompt appears until you use remote control or press the permission button in Settings. - Cursor overlay with Accessibility still not granted: the overlay is click-through and does not take focus, where the OS allows the window.
- Accessibility denied or revoked in System Settings: injection stops and stays unavailable. Chat and view-only still work.
- Input Monitoring unavailable: the helper reports that state, and remote control stays disarmed because the emergency stop is not available.
- Screen Recording denied: screen share fails. Chat and view-only still work. The sidecar does not ask for Screen Recording.
- A mouse-only grant rejects keyboard events. A keyboard-only grant rejects pointer events.
- Two displays, a Retina display, and a display with a negative origin place the overlay and injected pointer on the shared display.
- Fullscreen and Spaces: note what stayed on top. The lock screen and some fullscreen Spaces are expected gaps.
- Disconnect or revoke while a modifier or button is held: the host releases that injected state.
- Emergency stop while the p2p.kiwi window is unfocused or minimized: injection stops without waiting for the network.
- Kill the sidecar and let it restart: control is not armed again until the host grants it again.
- Update or reinstall: confirm System Settings still shows
p2p.kiwi Sidecar(kiwi.p2p.desktop.sidecar) and whether macOS asked for the same permissions again.
