`brew trust` accepts code from this third-party tap. On older Homebrew versions the command doesn't exist yet — just skip it. Details in [Local Installation](/local/local-install).

If you install with Homebrew: `brew trust` tells Homebrew you accept code from this third-party tap. Recent Homebrew versions warn about untrusted taps, and Homebrew 6 will require the trust step before installing or upgrading from them. On older Homebrew versions the command doesn't exist yet — just skip it.
If you install with Homebrew: the full `basicmachines-co/basic-memory/basic-memory` name adds the tap and trusts this formula in one step, so you don't need a separate `brew tap` or `brew trust`. Recent Homebrew versions warn about untrusted third-party taps, and Homebrew 6 will require trust before installing or upgrading from them. If you already installed with `brew install basic-memory`, run `brew trust basicmachines-co/basic-memory` once (Homebrew 5.1 or later).
