Changelog

Added

• Added a macOS background helper that can write to /etc/hosts silently after one-time authorization, reducing repeated password prompts during automatic remote hosts updates.
• Added background helper management in General settings, including status, install, reinstall, and remove actions.
• Added an “Open System Settings” button to help users approve the helper in macOS Login Items.

Improved

• macOS hosts applying now tries the background helper first, then automatically falls back to the existing system authorization flow if the helper is unsupported, unavailable, or fails.
• Added safety checks to the helper write flow and restricted privileged writes to /etc/hosts only.
• Improved macOS login startup behavior to avoid unexpectedly showing a previously hidden main window.

Fixed

• Fixed background helper XPC signature validation failures on macOS 26.
• Fixed possible concurrent helper unregister/register operations when repeatedly triggering helper repair.
• Fixed macOS universal builds failing to package the background helper binary correctly.
