This wrapper removes all the extra UI elements from the web interface to provide a clean, focused experience.\n\n## Screenshot\n\n![GitHub Copilot App Screenshot](screenshot.png)\n\n## Features\n\n- Clean, distraction-free interface focused on the GitHub Copilot conversation\n- Native macOS app experience\n- Automatic UI cleanup to remove unnecessary elements\n- Lightweight wrapper around the GitHub Copilot web interface\n\n## Requirements\n\n- macOS 15.0 or later\n- Xcode 16.0 or later for development\n\n## Installation\n\n### Option 1: Download Pre-built App (Recommended)\n\n1. Go to the [Releases](https://github.com/JamesLautner/GitHubCopilotWrapperApp/releases) page on GitHub\n2. Download the latest `.zip` file\n3. Extract the zip and move `GitHub Copilot.app` to your Applications folder\n4. When opening for the first time, right-click the app and select \"Open\" to bypass Gatekeeper\n\n#### Troubleshooting: \"App is damaged\" Error\n\nIf you see a message saying the app is \"damaged and can't be opened\":\n\n1. Open Terminal and run this command:\n   ```\n   xattr -cr /Applications/GitHub\\ Copilot.app\n   ```\n2. Try opening the app again\n\nThis happens because the app isn't signed with an Apple Developer certificate. The command removes quarantine attributes that macOS adds to downloaded files.\n\n### Option 2: Build from Source\n\n1. Clone this repository\n2. Open the project in Xcode\n3. Build and run the application\n\n## Usage\n\nAfter launching the app, you'll need to sign in with your GitHub account that has GitHub Copilot access. The app will automatically clean up the interface to focus on the chat experience.\n\n## License\n\nThis project is available under the MIT License. See the LICENSE file for more information.\n\n## Disclaimer\n\nThis is an unofficial wrapper application and is not affiliated with GitHub or Microsoft.\n\n## Development\n\n### Continuous Integration\n\nThis project uses GitHub Actions for continuous integration. Each push to the main branch and each release tag automatically builds the app and creates:\n\n- Development builds for commits to main (available as build artifacts)\n- Official release packages for tagged releases\n\nTo create a new release:\n\n1. Create and push a new tag with the version number: `git tag v1.0.0 \u0026\u0026 git push --tags`\n2. GitHub Actions will automatically build the app and create a new release with the app binary\n\nSee `.github/workflows/build-macos-app.yml` for the full CI workflow configuration.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjameslautner%2Fgithubcopilotwrapperapp","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fjameslautner%2Fgithubcopilotwrapperapp","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fjameslautner%2Fgithubcopilotwrapperapp/lists"}
