Use when shipping a macOS app outside the App Store — Developer ID signing with hardened runtime, notarization with notarytool, stapling, building a clean drag-to-Applications DMG, and verifying the result launches on a stranger's Mac.
Use when reading, writing, or watching the macOS clipboard — NSPasteboard types and multiple representations, the changeCount polling pattern, the transient/concealed pasteboard conventions clipboard tools must respect, and the Sequoia paste-privacy alerts.
Use when adding or reviewing keyboard shortcuts in a macOS app — in-app vs global, RegisterEventHotKey vs the KeyboardShortcuts package vs NSEvent monitors, user-configurable recording, conflict handling, and which defaults won't collide with the system.
Use when adding, reviewing, or debugging Launch at Login in a macOS app — SMAppService registration, the requiresApproval state, a Settings toggle that reflects reality, and migration off deprecated login-item APIs.
Use when adding or reviewing macOS user notifications — UNUserNotificationCenter permission flow, categories and action buttons, click routing through the delegate, foreground presentation, and rules that keep notifications from becoming spam.
Use when a macOS app needs a TCC permission or touches private data — the map of which API, Info.plist key, and entitlement each permission needs, pre-prompt explanation patterns, denied-state recovery with System Settings deep links, and honest privacy copy.

3. Visual hierarchy
4. Onboarding
5. Empty states
6. Feedback/status
7. Performance feel

A new user should understand:
What is this?
Why do I need it?
What should I click first?
What happens after I click?
Can I trust it?
If not, simplify.
[ ] App name is clear
[ ] One-sentence value proposition exists

[ ] Empty state helps user start
[ ] Visual style feels intentional
[ ] No broken or placeholder content
[ ] No confusing technical jargon for non-technical users

Good format:
[Product] helps [user] do [job] without [pain].
Examples:
HubApp helps vibe coders run agent projects from one calm Mac workspace without losing track of tasks, skills, and active runs.
SkillPilot helps builders choose the right skills for each task without digging through folders.
For launch screenshots:
1. Hero screen showing main value
2. Command palette / fast workflow
3. Active run / status tracking
4. Skills/project organization
5. Settings/local AI/privacy
Rules:
Every empty state should sell the product gently.
Example:
No Active Runs
The agent is not working on anything right now.
Start a task, open the queue, or run a saved skill.
Especially for AI/local apps:
[ ] Explain what stays local
[ ] Explain when cloud is used
[ ] Do not silently send private prompts to cloud
[ ] Show model/provider status
[ ] Show folder permissions clearly
[ ] Store secrets securely
[ ] Add export/delete data options if relevant
Good buttons:

Open Queue
Generate Report
Connect Ollama
Bad buttons:
