Conversation
….1.0) Set up the desktop release + auto-update pipeline on GitHub Releases: - updater endpoint -> releases/latest/download/latest.json, and rotate to a fresh minisign pubkey (B0A29640) whose private key is held for CI signing - release.yml: auto-publish (releaseDraft: false) and trim the build matrix to macOS-only to conserve the org's free Actions minutes (macOS bills at 10x) - add apps/web /download page + DownloadDesktopButton (reads the latest GitHub release via API, links straight to the universal .dmg, stays current across releases) - add apps/desktop/scripts/release-dmg.sh for local signed+notarized DMG builds Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Wires up the desktop app's release + auto-update pipeline on GitHub Releases (no extra infra), and adds the website download button. After this merges, a
v0.1.0tag triggers a fully signed + notarized macOS release with working auto-update.Changes
releases/latest/download/latest.json, and rotates to a fresh minisign pubkey (B0A29640). The matching private key is held for CI signing (TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEYsecret).releaseDraft: false) so thelatestpermalink resolves immediately, and trims the build matrix to macOS-only to conserve the org's free Actions minutes (macOS bills at 10×)./downloadpage whose button reads the latest GitHub release via the API and links straight to the universal.dmg— stays current across releases with no edits.Prerequisites (already done)
All 15 CI secrets are set:
TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY(+ password), the sixAPPLE_*, and theNEXT_PUBLIC_*build vars.Release flow after merge
maingit tag v0.1.0 && git push origin v0.1.0/downloadbutton auto-points at the new DMGNote

.p12password). A failed CI run is safe — nothing publishes unless the build fully succeeds.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
