Peter Steinberger 0fe2132d5f feat(mac): gate Peekaboo Bridge on Computer Control (#106531)
Both settings grant local UI automation, so run PeekabooBridge only while
Allow Computer Control is on. The toggle now reflects the effective state and
is disabled when Computer Control is off; users drive Peekaboo via its own Mac
app in that case. Removes the confusing standalone bridge switch.

OpenClaw macOS app (dev + signing)

Quick dev run

# from repo root
scripts/restart-mac.sh

Options:

scripts/restart-mac.sh --no-sign   # fastest dev; ad-hoc signing (TCC permissions do not stick)
scripts/restart-mac.sh --sign      # force code signing (requires cert)

Packaging flow

scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Creates dist/OpenClaw.app and signs it via scripts/codesign-mac-app.sh.

Signing behavior

Auto-selects identity (first match):

  1. Developer ID Application
  2. Apple Distribution
  3. Apple Development
  4. first available identity

If none found:

  • errors by default
  • set ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 or SIGN_IDENTITY="-" to ad-hoc sign

Team ID audit (Sparkle mismatch guard)

After signing, we read the app bundle Team ID and compare every Mach-O inside the app. If any embedded binary has a different Team ID, signing fails.

Skip the audit:

SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Library validation workaround (dev only)

If Sparkle Team ID mismatch blocks loading (common with Apple Development certs), opt in:

DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

This adds com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation to app entitlements. Use for local dev only; keep off for release builds.

Useful env flags

  • SIGN_IDENTITY="Apple Development: Your Name (TEAMID)"
  • ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 (ad-hoc, TCC permissions do not persist)
  • CODESIGN_TIMESTAMP=off (offline debug)
  • DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 (dev-only Sparkle workaround)
  • SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 (bypass audit)
