Get Drifterr on
every device.
One install and it watches every AI chat for drift — locally, on your machine.
Your OS will warn you on first launch. Nothing is wrong with the download — we haven't bought the signing certificates yet. Here's the exact way through, and you only do it once.
You'll see "Drifterr can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" — or "is damaged and can't be opened".
- Open Applications in Finder.
- Right-click (or Control-click) Drifterr → Open.
- Click Open again in the dialog.
Still blocked? Run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Drifterr.app and reopen. Auto-update is unreliable while unsigned, so update by downloading the new build.
SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC" and hides the install button.
- Click More info.
- Click Run anyway.
The installer is per-user and needs no admin rights.
No signature prompt, but the AppImage needs the executable bit.
chmod +x Drifterr-*.AppImage./Drifterr-*.AppImage
The .deb installs normally with apt install ./drifterr_*.deb.
Want to check the download first? Every release publishes SHA-256 checksums next to the binaries — verify before you run, and see what the app does and doesn't send.
