macOS 27

macOS 27 for Mac notch developers

If you are extending NotNotch, macOS 27 is a host surface or a documented constraint. NotNotch keeps a macOS 14 deployment floor and is intended to run on macOS 27 without raising the minimum to 27.

Host rules

Packages declare placements in manifest.json. macOS 27 may be openTab, liveActivity, or a first-party module.

Do not disable library validation

Unsigned third-party binaries stay manifest-only. That is intentional.
