Current availability and limitations
- Supported Macs — Apple Silicon and macOS 14 or later. Distribution is outside the App Store. Intel Macs and Windows are not supported.
- Updates — Updates are checked from Settings, never on launch, and install only when you say so. Builds installed before the update channel opened need one more manual DMG.
- Connected services — Gmail is a technical-preview connection: you sign in with your own Google account and grant access in Google’s consent screen; reading is in Standard, real sending in Pro and the trial, draft-only by default. Calendar, Drive, Slack, Notion, GitHub, and Linear are coming soon in the default build.
- Context freshness — After switching windows, captured context and suggested actions may take a few seconds to catch up. Check the source before using a generated answer.
- Chat and live tools — With your own Anthropic or OpenAI API key, chat can search your memory and connected services before answering and shows its sources; anything that would send, post, or create still waits for your approval. With a subscription sign-in or another provider’s API key, chat uses local memory and captured context only and cannot call connected tools yet.
- Morning Brief and nightly review — The current summary and state classification use local extraction and rules. Model-written Briefs and automatic identity consolidation are not available yet.
- Meeting notes — Live captions need your own speech-provider key. Typed notes remain available without it. Network interruptions can create gaps in captions; false meeting offers are still being refined. SHOGUN does not save audio files.
- Visual recall — Off by default. When enabled, screenshots are held in the encrypted local memory store for a finite period: 1–7 days or a custom duration up to 3,650 days. The default is 3 days. At 2 GiB, new frames stop; age-based deletion continues. Screen Recording permission is optional for text capture through Accessibility.
- Agents — Install and sign in to a supported vendor CLI, then opt in in Settings, or provide an API key. SHOGUN does not import another app’s stored login credentials.
- Memory API — Available on Pro and during an active trial. State-change proposals are unavailable until durable proposals and their confirmation UI are implemented.
- Help and billing — Use Settings → Help → Contact support. Purchase receipts do not contain your licence key: save it from the purchase success page. If automatic activation does not finish, include the invoice number in your support request, never the key.
