The short version is: Chirp is unsigned, so by default macos 10.9 and 
beyond doesn't allow it to be run.  In 10.9 there were GUI options to 
say "really, its ok: run it".  The gui options were removed in 10.12, 
leaving only the command line spctl tool to mark an executable as ok to 
run.

If you're just running open on a recent chirp daily build: you are 
probably on an OS before 10.9 or turned off the security assessment 
policy subsystem.
