outset in macos mojave

We've been using outset since our last deployment to take care of some user settings at login.

Since Mojave, every user gets the pop up "outset want's access to control finder.app".

I know we can whitelists for kernel extensions, but it appears outset isn't signed? Anyone have a work around for this?

Follow the steps outlined on the link below. You will need Apple Developer account for code signing.

After following Carl's instructions, I am having issues.
This is my first use of anything with a certificate from Developer, but when running the following code I get an error:

# codesign -s "Mac Developer: MyCommonName (ID)" -i com.github.outset outset outset: bundle format unrecognized, invalid, or unsuitable.

Everything I search for on this is related to Xcode or bundles/apps rather than a terminal command line.
Can anyone assist with getting this working?

-edit- found my error : I was pointing to the incorrect file.
