Assert arch and signature on every downloaded Mach-O. This is the one genuine
gap the simulation had: Rosetta 2 is preinstalled on hosted runners and absent
from a factory-fresh Mac, so an x86_64-only llama.cpp, whisper.cpp, Node or uv
payload runs green here and dies with "bad CPU type in executable" for the
user. llama-server launching under `assert-llama-loads.sh` does not rule that
out, because Rosetta makes it launch. The new `macho` check reads `file -b`
(`lipo` is an xcrun shim and is gone after masking, as the desktop lane already
notes) and keys the expected arch off `uname -m`, so macos-15-intel expects
x86_64. It also requires at least an ad-hoc signature on arm64, which closes
the AMFI "Killed: 9" class that uv has already been bitten by; the check is
skipped on x86_64, where unsigned code loads fine and so is not the same
defect. It fails when the scan finds nothing, since an empty scan reads exactly
like a clean one.
Make absence real rather than PATH-hidden. uv probes well-known interpreter
locations and the framework loader ignores PATH entirely, so hiding the
toolcache only hid it from `command -v`. Empty /usr/local (it EXISTS on a
factory-fresh Mac as a SIP-exempt firmlink, and is empty; it is /usr/local/bin
that is absent, so the directory itself stays), move the hosted toolcache and
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework aside, and clear the developer dotdirs and
caches. A populated uv or pip cache can also satisfy a resolution that would
fail on a user's machine. Every removal goes through --remove and is recorded
in the generated restore.sh, guarded so a path the install recreated is not
buried inside its own restore.
Unset CI, GITHUB_* and RUNNER_* for the installer process only. An installer
branching on CI=true is a hidden dependency no consumer exercises. Scoped to
the child so the step's own $GITHUB_OUTPUT still resolves.
Record spctl --status and csrutil status. Neither is documented for these
images and both change what a binary is allowed to do.
