macOS Feature

Window Management

Local AI Cat includes keyboard shortcuts and macOS window behavior that fit best in the direct-download build.

Mac App Store note: the App Store build can only move the Local AI Cat window itself. It cannot control other apps' windows because App Store sandboxing blocks that access.

What the direct-download build is for

Snap Local AI Cat into useful side-by-side layouts
Use the fuller Mac capability set outside App Store sandbox limits
Keep the direct-download path aligned with Team and Enterprise rollout

Why the App Store is more limited

Apple requires Mac App Store apps to run inside a sandbox. That limits external window control and other system-level capabilities that fit better in a direct-download build.
