Description
I know it's a beta!
Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.26-20170724171020+b095a794e
Fresh install of macOS 10.13 with no VMware, virtual box installed. On launching Keybase, after I authorize the helper tool install, I get this:
To be honest, I really would like the ability to just use the CLI. I'm not after an encrypted chat client with a shared encrypted FS.

Research direction
The report concerns Keybase GUI 1.0.26 on macOS 10.13 and includes a screenshot of the helper-tool installation error. Start by reproducing the launch and authorization flow on that macOS version, then determine whether the intended result is a working KBFS installation or a CLI-only path. Done when the requested behavior is confirmed and covered by an appropriate regression check.
