The `stable` channel will provide the most recent osquery version that Fleet deems to be stable. When a new version of osquery is released, it is added to the `edge` channel for beta testing. Fleet then provides input to the osquery TSC based on testing. After the version is declared stable by the osquery TSC, Fleet will promote the version to `stable` ASAP. #### macOS signing & Notarization
