Error opening HID Manager
Unable to open device
System Information
- Operating system: macOS Mojave - 10.14.4
- QMK Toolbox version: 0.0.9 (1)
Additional Context
All the dependencies were installed via brew and are on most recent version.
I originally installed via cask but got the error so I uninstalled via cask and manually downloaded the file but received the same error.
I looked up the error and saw something about ATOM but nothing with a clean solution or a something I would know how to implement.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the QMK Toolbox 0.0.9 flow on macOS Mojave with the provided teensy_loader_cli command and its “Error opening HID Manager” output. Read the Toolbox logs and the teensy_loader_cli HID interaction first; done means the connected Halfkay device opens successfully and the firmware flash proceeds without that error.
