Verify a download

Every file has a SHA-256 checksum under its download button, and all of them are listed in SHA256SUMS.txt. On macOS or Linux run shasum -a 256 <file>; on Windows run certutil -hashfile <file> SHA256, and compare.

Release 1.0.16 · 2026-10-12. Prefer the browser? The same dashboard is at app.jackhamr.ai.

Questions

Is the desktop app free?
Yes. It is included with every JackHamr account and uses the same credits as the web dashboard.
Which Linux package should I pick?
Use the native package for your distribution when one is listed: it registers the app menu entry and the sign-in link handler for you. The AppImage runs anywhere but you may need to register the jackhamr:// link handler yourself for browser sign-in to hand back to the app.
Windows says the publisher is unknown.
The Windows installer is not yet code-signed, so SmartScreen may show a warning the first time. Choose "More info", then "Run anyway". Verify the download with the SHA-256 checksum below if you want to be sure.
Does it work offline?
No. The app is a native shell around the JackHamr dashboard and needs a connection to reach your agents.
How do I get updates?
macOS, Windows, and AppImage builds update themselves and show a banner when a restart is needed. Apps installed from .deb, .rpm, or pacman packages notify you and link back to this page. Check for Updates in the app menu runs a check on demand.
