As for your first question, about why 1Password refuses to run outside of Applications, I’m pretty sure it’s security. There is something special about Applications on MacOS that apparently AgileBits views as an attack vector when run outside of it.

I was curious about your final question as well, but I know little about how this works. The error when I tried vscode looked to be that the signature had gotten malformed somehow during brew-nix’s copy operation but since I had no idea what a correct signature should even look like I got stumped there.
