Use it anywhere

1. Open the downloaded .dmg and drag Opengency into your Applications folder.
2. Double-click Opengency in Applications. The first time, macOS will say it "could not verify" the app — that's because the installer isn't Apple-signed yet. Click "Done" to dismiss it (don't click "Move to Trash").
3. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll to "Security" at the bottom, and you'll see "Opengency was blocked" — click "Open Anyway" next to it.
4. In the confirmation dialog that follows, click "Open Anyway" again and enter your login password or use Touch ID. After that it opens normally like any other app.

• The "Open Anyway" button only appears for about an hour after you try opening it. If you don't see it, go back to step 2 and double-click again.
• On macOS 14 or earlier you can also right-click Opengency in Applications → "Open" → "Open" again.
• If it says "Opengency is damaged and can't be opened": that usually means an incomplete or altered download. Check the SHA256 checksum below first. If it matches, run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Opengency.app in Terminal to clear the quarantine flag, then try opening it again; if it doesn't match, delete the file and download it again from opengency.ai — don't run it.

Verify with: shasum -a 256 Opengency-0.1.12-mac-arm64.dmg on macOS / Linux, or certutil -hashfile Opengency-0.1.12-mac-arm64.dmg SHA256 on Windows — the result should match the value above.

Verify with: shasum -a 256 Opengency-0.1.12-mac-x64.dmg on macOS / Linux, or certutil -hashfile Opengency-0.1.12-mac-x64.dmg SHA256 on Windows — the result should match the value above.

1. If your browser warns the file "isn't commonly downloaded" or "may be risky", choose "Keep" (in Edge: click "…" → "Keep" → "Keep anyway"). This happens with any newly released installer that hasn't been downloaded much yet.
2. Run the installer. If you see the blue "Windows protected your PC" screen, click "More info", confirm the app name matches the installer's filename, then click "Run anyway".
3. Follow the setup wizard to choose an install location and finish. By default it installs for the current user only, so no admin rights are needed.
4. If your antivirus flags an "unknown publisher", verify the SHA256 checksum below matches, then allow it.

Verify with: shasum -a 256 Opengency-0.1.12-win-x64.exe on macOS / Linux, or certutil -hashfile Opengency-0.1.12-win-x64.exe SHA256 on Windows — the result should match the value above.

1. In the folder containing the download, make it executable: chmod +x Opengency-*.AppImage
2. Double-click it, or run ./Opengency-*.AppImage in a terminal. If the directory contains multiple versions, use the downloaded file's full name instead.
3. If it complains about missing FUSE (common on Ubuntu 22.04 and later), install it first: sudo apt install libfuse2 (the package is called libfuse2t64 on Ubuntu 24.04).

Verify with: shasum -a 256 Opengency-0.1.12-linux-x86_64.AppImage on macOS / Linux, or certutil -hashfile Opengency-0.1.12-linux-x86_64.AppImage SHA256 on Windows — the result should match the value above.
