ci(release): publish Win/Linux installers on tag (decoupled)#202
Merged
Conversation
Adds build-desktop (Linux deb+appimage, Windows nsis) + release-desktop jobs that attach the installers to the same GitHub Release on every v* tag. The build step is identical to the proven cross-platform-bundle spike. Decoupled from the macOS build/release jobs (mirrors the `mas` job): a flaky AppImage/NSIS build can't block a macOS release and vice versa. Unsigned today (Windows cert is the owner's call) and no auto-updater (Win/Linux updates are manual re-downloads) — both documented inline + in the hardening doc.

Builds the Win/Linux release pipeline (P2 #5 / your request). On every
v*tag, the release now also produces Windows + Linux installers and attaches them to the same GitHub Release.What

latest.jsonstays macOS-only; those users update by re-downloading.Not live-tested end-to-end
release.ymlis tag-triggered, so I didn't cut a throwaway release (it'd also run the 90-min macOS build + publish a bogus version). Each piece is either proven (build-desktop ≡ #199) or standard (download-artifact+action-gh-release). The first realv*tag will exercise it; happy to dry-run with a pre-release tag if you'd like.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
