I stumbled across this in the documentation - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/bundle/1411412-url. I can't seem to get it to return anything for me. In my Mac app Xcode project I added an executable to a copy files phase and set that phase Destination to "Executables". This seemed like the logical place to do it. This did not get a url when calling Bundle.main.url(forAuxiliaryExecutable) I want to pass this url to Process.executableURL I am able to generate the apropriate URL by calling Bundle.main.bundleURL then .appendPathComponent("Contents/MacOS/excutable") but am just curious about this forAuxiliaryExecutable Am I misunderstanding what this would be for?

My macOS app (targeting Catalina only) uses camera, mic and screen recording. While developing the app the system asks me permission every time I rebuild and run the app. This does not happen on iOS. Is there anyway to prevent this? Secondly when I distribute the app to other Macs, every build needs the consent re-affirmed. This doesn't seem like the way it should be. What could I be doing wrong?
