Requirements
Running G-Rump
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| macOS | macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later |
| Hardware | Apple silicon or Intel — the release build is a universal binary |
| API key | One of: Anthropic (default), OpenAI, Google, OpenRouter |
| Disk | The app is about 13 MB unzipped |
| Account | None. No sign-up, no telemetry, no backend — the app calls your provider directly |
Your API key is stored in the macOS Keychain and used only for direct requests to the provider you chose. See AI Providers for the supported model catalog.
Optional capabilities
- Accessibility permission — required only for the global QuickChat hotkey (double-tap ⌃Space).
- Xcode — required only if you want G-Rump's build engine to drive
xcodebuildand the iOS simulator. Plain Swift packages need just the Command Line Tools. - Notifications — optional, for proactive suggestions and Focus Filter integration.
Building from source
- Xcode 16.2 or later (full Xcode, not just Command Line Tools, for
swift test) - Swift Package Manager resolves all dependencies on first build
See Quick Start for the clone-and-run steps and Distribution for packaging.
