The legacy `systray@1.0.5` package (last published 2018) bundles a 2017
x86_64 Go binary whose Mach-O headers are rejected by modern dyld (macOS
14+ / Apple Silicon). The result on affected systems was that
`9router --tray` (and "Hide to Tray" from the interactive menu) printed
"Router is now running in system tray" but no menubar icon appeared —
the failure was silently swallowed by `catch (err) { return null }`.
This swaps the runtime tray library for `systray2@2.1.4`, which embeds
the maintained getlantern/systray-portable binaries that work on macOS
14+ under Rosetta. Changes:
- hooks/trayRuntime.js: install `systray2@2.1.4` (not `systray@1.0.5`)
into ~/.9router/runtime/node_modules. Always purge the legacy systray
package on every run — its binary is broken on macOS and an AV false
positive on Windows. chmod +x the bundled Go binary in case the npm
tarball drops the executable bit (observed on macOS).
- src/cli/tray/tray.js: resolveSystray() now prefers systray2 with a
fallback to legacy systray for safety. initUnixTray() uses the new
.ready() promise API, surfaces failures to stderr instead of silently
returning null, and sets isTemplateIcon:false so the full-color
icon.png renders correctly (template mode would show a solid white
square because only the alpha channel is used). killTray() passes
false to systray2's kill so it doesn't call process.exit(0) before
the rest of cleanup (server SIGKILL, MITM/tunnel) runs.
- package.json: update the `comment_systray` field to describe the new
package choice.

9Router - FREE AI Router & Token Saver
Never stop coding. Save 20-40% tokens with RTK + auto-fallback to FREE & cheap AI models.
Connect All AI Code Tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Antigravity, Copilot, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Cline, OpenClaw...) to 40+ AI Providers & 100+ Models.
🤔 Why 9Router?
Stop wasting money, tokens and hitting limits:
- ❌ Subscription quota expires unused every month
- ❌ Rate limits stop you mid-coding
- ❌ Tool outputs (git diff, grep, ls...) burn tokens fast
- ❌ Expensive APIs ($20-50/month per provider)
9Router solves this:
- ✅ RTK Token Saver - Auto-compress tool_result, save 20-40% tokens
- ✅ Maximize subscriptions - Track quota, use every bit before reset
- ✅ Auto fallback - Subscription → Cheap → Free, zero downtime
- ✅ Multi-account - Round-robin between accounts per provider
- ✅ Universal - Works with any OpenAI/Claude-compatible CLI
