Questions
Oxide's macOS builds aren't notarized by Apple yet, so Gatekeeper stops the first launch. Open the app once, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway. You only do this once; updates installed through Oxide are unaffected. Full steps.
Every release ships a SHA256SUMS.txt and a build-provenance attestation that ties each file to the workflow run and commit that built it. Check the hash, or run gh attestation verify on the file. Commands for macOS and Windows.
Any one of Claude Code, Codex or Antigravity CLI is enough, installed and logged in before you launch Oxide. Add the others whenever you like: Oxide offers every Provider it finds, and you choose one per Thread. Requirements.
Oxide updates itself from Settings → Updates and offers only stable releases; test pre-releases never reach the updater. New versions and what changed are on the changelog. How updates work.
