This seems overly complicated. I just right click and choose "Open". What additional value do you get from the spctl command?

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.
