## Troubleshooting
### macOS Gatekeeper warning
If macOS blocks the binary with *"cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified"*:
```bash
# Option 1: approve via System Settings → Privacy & Security → Allow Anyway
# Option 2: remove quarantine flag (Homebrew install should handle this automatically)
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine "$(which openhuman)"
```
Binaries installed via Homebrew or the signed `.app` bundle are notarized by
Apple and should not trigger Gatekeeper.
### apt: "NO_PUBKEY" error
Re-import the key:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://tinyhumansai.github.io/openhuman/apt/KEY.gpg \
| sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/openhuman.gpg
sudo apt-get update
```
### npm: binary not found after install
The postinstall script may have failed silently. Re-run it manually:
```bash
FORCE_REINSTALL=1 node "$(npm root -g)/openhuman/install.js"
```
Or reinstall cleanly:
```bash
npm uninstall -g openhuman && npm install -g openhuman
```
### Verify checksum manually
Every release asset ships a companion `.sha256` file:
```bash
VERSION=0.49.33
TARGET=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
curl -fsSLO "https://github.com/tinyhumansai/openhuman/releases/download/v${VERSION}/openhuman-core-${VERSION}-${TARGET}.tar.gz"
curl -fsSLO "https://github.com/tinyhumansai/openhuman/releases/download/v${VERSION}/openhuman-core-${VERSION}-${TARGET}.tar.gz.sha256"
echo "$(cat openhuman-core-${VERSION}-${TARGET}.tar.gz.sha256) openhuman-core-${VERSION}-${TARGET}.tar.gz" | sha256sum --check
```

## Running from source
The default runtime is **CEF** (bundled Chromium), which requires the **vendored CEF-aware `tauri-cli`** at `app/src-tauri/vendor/tauri-cef/crates/tauri-cli`. The stock `@tauri-apps/cli` does **not** know how to bundle the Chromium Embedded Framework into `OpenHuman.app/Contents/Frameworks/`, so a bundle produced by it panics at startup inside `cef::library_loader::LibraryLoader::new` with `No such file or directory`.
All `cargo tauri` scripts in `app/package.json` (`yarn dev:app`, `yarn macos:build:*`, etc.) run [`scripts/ensure-tauri-cli.sh`](../scripts/ensure-tauri-cli.sh) first, which installs the vendored CLI into `~/.cargo/bin/cargo-tauri` on first use. Those scripts also `export CEF_PATH="$HOME/Library/Caches/tauri-cef"` so that **every** `cef-dll-sys` invocation — the main app's and the inner `cargo build` that `tauri-bundler`'s `build.rs` runs to produce the embedded `cef-helper` — resolves to the same CEF binary distribution. Without this, the embedded helper ends up with bindings from a *different* downloaded CEF than the framework loaded at runtime, and helper processes abort with `FATAL: CefApp_0_CToCpp called with invalid version -1`.
If you ever overwrite `cargo-tauri` (e.g. `npm i -g @tauri-apps/cli` or `cargo install tauri-cli`), or switch CEF versions, reinstall with `CEF_PATH` set and force a bundler rebuild (touch forces `tauri-bundler/build.rs` to recompile the embedded cef-helper):
```bash
export CEF_PATH="$HOME/Library/Caches/tauri-cef"
touch app/src-tauri/vendor/tauri-cef/cef-helper/src/*.rs
cargo install --force --locked --path app/src-tauri/vendor/tauri-cef/crates/tauri-cli
```
