While Commonplace Study is in testing, your computer may not recognise it yet and ask whether to trust it. This happens once:

Windows: if a blue box says "Windows protected your PC", click More info, then Run anyway.
Mac: if it says Commonplace Study "can't be opened", right-click (or Control-click) Commonplace Study in Applications, choose Open, then Open again.

After that it opens like any other app, and keeps itself up to date.

A Mac, or a PC with Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit).
No account and no internet, except for your calendar, updates and Claude.
A folder for your notes: Commonplace Study suggests Documents › Commonplace Study, and you can choose any other.
