NorthStarWay
Your personal life-architecture system — a local-first AI navigator that runs on your own machine and your own AI subscription.
Most Macs from 2020 onward are Apple Silicon.
Mac first launch: drag NorthStarWay into your Applications folder, then open it normally from Finder. The Mac builds are signed, notarized, and stapled.
Choose Apple Silicon for M-series Macs, or Intel for older Intel Macs.
Windows: this release is signed by North Star Way LLC. SmartScreen may still say “Windows protected your PC” while Microsoft reputation warms up; click More info, confirm Publisher: North Star Way LLC, then Run anyway. First launch can take about a minute while antivirus scans the bundled files.
Linux: experimental AppImage remains available for tester access, but Mac and Windows are the validated release paths today. Example: chmod +x NorthStarWay-latest-x86_64.AppImage
You’ll need your own AI subscription (ChatGPT Plus/Pro, Claude, or an OpenRouter key) — the app walks you through connecting it on first run.
