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.

TurnPanel 1 / Concepts

Skills

A Skill is a reusable set of instructions that teaches the agent how to handle a specific kind of work.

What a Skill contains

A Skill is an instruction pack built around a SKILL.md file. It can also include reference files, assets, and helper programs. TurnPanel shows the Skill’s name and description to the agent, then loads the full instructions only when they are relevant.

Skill or Script?

  • Use a Skill when the agent must follow a procedure and make decisions along the way.
  • Use a Script when Python can perform the steps directly without agent judgment.

Control

Skills can come with TurnPanel, be created locally, or be installed. Disabling a Skill hides it from the agent without deleting it. A Skill teaches the agent what to do, but does not give it extra access.
