For Papers, our approach is that the user should not have to download or install anything. The CSL repo is simply included in the app. We need to improve the way styles are updated, as it's currently only done on new releases.
Users can just drag a CSL file into the app otherwise. One issue with downloading of styles from a web site is that in the case of Safari, it changes the extension to .txt.
