2

Install and open

Drag Silmaril to Applications and open it.Expected result
Silmaril opens from /Applications/Silmaril.app.If this differs
Confirm the app is in Applications, then open that copy. An app that does not open is not yet ready to verify.
3

Connect and protect

Enter the Firewall URL and API key supplied by Silmaril, save the connection, prepare supported agents, then start a new agent session and confirm current Protection activity. A key typed here is stored in that user’s login Keychain.Expected result
The connection is saved. When the first-run connection screen is displayed, it reports Firewall connection verified. A new supported-agent session shows current activity in Protection.If this differs
Recheck the URL and key Silmaril supplied. Missing Protection activity means protection is not confirmed. Dragging the app into Applications, or saving a connection, does not by itself establish protection. Continue with Verify the endpoint.

There is no separate Nightly download, and the current Nightly build is (), the same as Stable. Under MDM update authority, the channel setting does not install builds. Your MDM deploys each PKG.
