What the DMG contains
Embedded validator node
Full NarwhalTusk DAG BFT client, auto-updating from GitHub releases every 5 minutes.
TUI dashboard
Live chain height, peer table, block feed, and resource counters. No browser needed.
Thor pre-installed
The full Thor agent binary ships inside the DMG. Type the /thor slash in the app and go.
Payment channel helper
Open, stream, and close hspace_pay channels from the UI without touching the CLI.
Zero config
On first launch it wires up keys, joins bootnodes, and starts syncing. Nothing to edit.
Self-healing sync
Chaindata persists across updates. If the binary crashes, the supervisor restarts it.
