- Linux tray panel, desktop appearance, thread previews, and delegated-thread filtering.
- Consistent package names, SHA-256 checksums, and source receipts.
- Updated installers, Homebrew, and installation instructions.
Install
macOS 14+ · Apple Silicon
curl -fsSL https://eliophan.github.io/t3code-bar/install.sh | bashOr use Homebrew:
brew install --cask eliophan/tap/t3-code-barAlready installed with Homebrew? Run brew update, then brew upgrade --cask eliophan/tap/t3-code-bar. If Homebrew requests trust, run brew trust --cask eliophan/tap/t3-code-bar and retry.
Or download the macOS .app.zip, unzip, and move the app to Applications. The macOS build is ad hoc signed and not notarized by Apple. If blocked, try opening it, then use System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway.
Linux · x86_64
curl -fsSL https://eliophan.github.io/t3code-bar/install-linux.sh | bashOr download the .AppImage or .deb and its matching .sha256 file. Run sha256sum -c FILENAME.sha256 in the download directory and stop if verification fails. For AppImage, make the file executable and open it. For Debian/Ubuntu, install the .deb with sudo apt install ./FILENAME.deb.
The Linux installer requires curl, Python 3, and sha256sum. It installs without sudo and creates an application launcher and ~/.local/bin/t3-code-bar. To replace an installation made by the script, quit the Bar and follow the update instructions.
Connect
Open T3 Code, generate a pairing key, then paste it into the Bar. Swift v1 settings and tokens are not imported.
Compatibility
Linux packages are built on Ubuntu 24.04 with glibc 2.39. A StatusNotifier tray host is required; GNOME needs an AppIndicator extension. Saved pairing needs an unlocked Secret Service. Wayland needs layer-shell protocol version 4. If FUSE is unavailable, use APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 when launching the AppImage.
Earlier Linux native journeys were exercised on Omarchy. This release verifies Linux source and package hashes, but its native launch was not repeated because another Bar instance was running. Ubuntu/Debian desktop installation, other desktops, FUSE mounting, macOS native installation, and OS credential persistence require separate acceptance. CI verifies macOS package identity, architecture, and ad hoc signature integrity.
This is an alpha prerelease. Updates remain manual. Checksums detect corruption; they do not independently authenticate the publisher. release-receipt.json records the shared source revision and package hashes. Platform receipts contain the build details.
