One step before the first open

The Preview isn’t notarised yet: it’s with Apple for review, and they’re taking their time. Until it’s through, macOS blocks it the first time. Clearing that takes a few seconds, once.

  1. Open the downloaded file and drag TurnPanel onto Applications.
  2. Open Terminal and run this:
    Terminal
    $ xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/TurnPanel.app
  3. Open TurnPanel from Applications as usual.

Rather not use Terminal? Try to open TurnPanel once, then go to System Settings, Privacy & Security, and choose Open Anyway.

Self Evolution

How TurnPanel can learn from completed Jobs and improve a Space over time.

Updated 2026-09-12View as Markdown

What runs

After a Job becomes quiet, TurnPanel can make it searchable and improve Skills you allowed it to update. Memory is not background work: the agent keeps it during the Job. Maintenance shows what is waiting or running, why it is waiting, which Job it came from, and any Skill changes.

The maintenance queue separates search indexing, memory learning, and Skill updates.

Model and budget

  • Choose the model used for this work under Models > Background model. TurnPanel asks before it repeatedly uses a paid online model.

    Models → Agent models → Background model selects the model profile used for periodic memory, Skill, and maintenance work, with online disclosure and paid confirmation where applicable.
  • TurnPanel limits how many learning tasks can use a model each day. Turning off the Background model stops new AI-powered learning, but search indexing and work already prepared may still finish.

Foreground work wins

Your active work gets priority. If both tasks need the local model, background learning pauses and resumes after TurnPanel is quiet. It always follows the Space’s existing access rules.

Skill changes

TurnPanel can change only enabled Skills that you own and have allowed to evolve. Protected or manually written sections stay unchanged, and you can restore earlier versions from Maintenance.
