| # ARC Explorer v0.1 validation | |
| Release test date: November 13, 2026 (America/New_York). | |
| - Release build completed for arm64 with macOS 15.0 deployment target. | |
| - `python3 -m unittest discover -s Tests -p 'test_*.py' -v`: 28 passed. | |
| - `swift test --build-system native -c release --filter TerminalTests`: 2 passed. | |
| - Real local pseudo-terminal test: input, 42 × 140 window dimensions, and process exit. | |
| - Developer ID signatures on the main application and native askpass helper verified with strict recursive verification. | |
| - Six actual UI screenshots included in `paper/figures`; all were captured from the signed release build. Screenshots are offline and do not constitute live cluster or API tests. | |
| The current macOS host is newer than macOS 15. Compatibility is targeted by the deployment setting; this release has not been runtime-tested on every supported OS, every ARC cluster, all SSO/Jupyter flows, or every model API. No performance benchmark or independent security audit is claimed. | |
| The Swift package toolchain warns that `--build-system native` is deprecated. It is currently used because the default build path requires additional Metal tooling. Two upstream SwiftTerm unused-result compiler warnings do not fail the build. | |
| See `RELEASE_STATUS.md` for notarization and publication status. Signing alone is not notarization. | |
