Peter Steinberger 05c9dccf35 feat(apps): match the mascot design to the openclaw.ai hero
Aligns the shared OpenClawMascotView with the website hero styling:
per-part bounding-box gradients (SVG objectBoundingBox semantics; the
claws were nearly flat-colored before), antenna stroke width 2, eye
glow r=2, float depth -8% of size, and a light-scheme palette from the
site theme variables. The float now offsets the whole canvas like the
site floats the hero container, so the antennae no longer clip at the
float peak.

macOS adopts the hero glow treatment: the About pane mascot gets the
coral silhouette drop-shadow with the teal hover glow and 1.1 hover
scale, and the onboarding hero replaces its hand-rolled breathing glow
circle with the same silhouette glow.

OpenClaw macOS app (dev + signing)

Quick dev run

# from repo root
scripts/restart-mac.sh

Options:

scripts/restart-mac.sh --no-sign   # fastest dev; ad-hoc signing (TCC permissions do not stick)
scripts/restart-mac.sh --sign      # force code signing (requires cert)

Packaging flow

scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Creates dist/OpenClaw.app and signs it via scripts/codesign-mac-app.sh.

Signing behavior

Auto-selects identity (first match):

  1. Developer ID Application
  2. Apple Distribution
  3. Apple Development
  4. first available identity

If none found:

  • errors by default
  • set ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 or SIGN_IDENTITY="-" to ad-hoc sign

Team ID audit (Sparkle mismatch guard)

After signing, we read the app bundle Team ID and compare every Mach-O inside the app. If any embedded binary has a different Team ID, signing fails.

Skip the audit:

SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Library validation workaround (dev only)

If Sparkle Team ID mismatch blocks loading (common with Apple Development certs), opt in:

DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

This adds com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation to app entitlements. Use for local dev only; keep off for release builds.

Useful env flags

  • SIGN_IDENTITY="Apple Development: Your Name (TEAMID)"
  • ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 (ad-hoc, TCC permissions do not persist)
  • CODESIGN_TIMESTAMP=off (offline debug)
  • DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 (dev-only Sparkle workaround)
  • SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 (bypass audit)
