I believe you just need to remove the quarantine bit. I’ve definitely been distributing unsigned utility CLI tools to people on macOS 14. They’re built via CMake and so there’s no implicit signing.
xattr -d com.apple.quarantine Foo
The author of the post even mentions this BUT they’re operating in a very weird space where they want to make a command line tool but don’t want people to use a terminal to access it.
To me it’s a nonsensical issue. I suspect the author got flustered with a set of ideals and didn’t take the necessary step back to reevaluate their situation
