Support matrix
Where it runs. Where it uploads. What we have actually verified.
Nitro Shot is one Rust core behind a desktop app, a CLI and an MCP server. This page says which platforms and stores each of them reaches, and separates what we have run ourselves from what ships from the pipeline but has not been verified by us yet. It is updated with every release.

Platforms
The desktop app, the nss command line and the MCP server are built from the same code; the CLI and MCP run anywhere Rust does.
| Platform | Desktop app | nss CLI | MCP server | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| macOS, Apple silicon | Verified | Verified | Verified | macOS 12 or newer. Direct download, Developer ID signed and notarised. The machine Nitro Shot is built and used on. |
| Mac App Store | Planned | Not supported | Not supported | Sandboxed build is in the pipeline; listing follows once review clears. |
| Windows 10 / 11, x64 | Built | Built | Built | NSIS setup and MSI. iOS capture is not available on Windows; Android capture, framing, publishing all are. |
| Linux, x64 | Built | Built | Built | AppImage, .deb and .rpm. Same limits as Windows for capture. |
| Linux, arm64 | Not supported | Built | Built | CLI and MCP tarballs only; no desktop build. |
| Web app | Built | Not supported | Built | Frame, review and export in the browser with local files; the hosted MCP endpoint serves a read-only subset. |
| macOS, Intel | Not supported | Not supported | Not supported | Apple stopped selling Intel Macs in 2023 and macOS 26 is their last release. We do not build for them. |
Stores
Every capability talks to the store's own API. The pill under each store says whether we have exercised that API against a live account yet.
