description	Build, launch, and verify __APP_DISPLAY__ in the menu bar after a change. Confirms the running build is the one you just built.

QA APP_DISPLAY

Use this to verify a change actually works in the real app.

Loop

1. make check — format + lint + test. Fix everything it reports before going further.
2. Relaunch cleanly so you never validate a stale build:

   pkill -x __APP__ || pkill -f __APP__.app || true
   macos dev __SLUG__
   

3. Confirm the build you're looking at is the one you just built:

   pgrep -af "__APP__.app/Contents/MacOS/__APP__"
   

4. Verify behavior:
   • The status item appears in the menu bar; clicking it opens the menu.
   • The menu rows reflect the current AppStatus (cross-check with swift run __app__cli).
   • Settings opens (menu → Settings, or ⌘,) and prefs persist across relaunch.

Rules

• Never trigger Keychain prompts. Credentials use file storage in DEBUG. Keep KeychainPromptSafetyAuditTests green.
• If a test needs live network or a TTY, gate it behind an env var; don't make it run by default.
• Report what you observed (menu contents, log lines), not just "it works".
