feat(updater): in-app update on desktop, releases link on Android
Anyone who installed an AppImage or ran the Windows installer was frozen
on that version forever. Nothing in the app ever mentioned a new release
existed, and the release notes were the only announcement.
Desktop now checks a signed manifest, shows the version and its notes in
Settings, and installs and relaunches on request. The signature check is
the whole point: it is what stops a substituted download from being
installed by the app itself. Windows binaries stay unsigned for
SmartScreen purposes -- that is a code-signing certificate, a separate
problem -- but the update payload is verified against our own key.
Android is deliberately not wired to the updater. An app may not replace
its own APK; that is the package installer's job, and the plugin has no
Android implementation. It gets a link to the releases page instead of a
button that would throw.
The plugins are gated with a target-triple cfg rather than
cfg(desktop). Cargo only evaluates target cfgs in a [target.'cfg(..)']
table, so cfg(desktop) matches nothing, silently drops the dependency,
and fails much later with "Permission updater:default not found" -- which
is exactly what the first attempt here did.
Where the manifest lives took some finding. This Gitea serves
/releases/download/<tag>/<asset> but 404s on
/releases/latest/download/<asset> (verified against a real asset), so
there is no stable latest-release URL. The gitea-pages branch is
force-pushed wholesale by publish-docs.yml, so it cannot host the file
either. latest.json therefore gets its own orphan branch, read over the
raw-file URL, and is published from a scratch repo in RUNNER_TEMP rather
than by switching branches in the checkout -- doing that would have left
the following steps standing on a one-commit history, and the next step
but one runs release:notes against the real commit range.
Also fixed, all of it release-integrity:
- "appimage" is in bundle.targets. The release notes have advertised an
AppImage for months; tauri.conf.json never built one, the artifact
step globbed for *.AppImage, found nothing, and said nothing. The
step now fails instead.
- The .AppImage.tar.gz/.sig pair and the NSIS .sig are collected. A
manifest referencing a signature that was never uploaded fails only
on the user's machine, so the manifest step also refuses to write an
entry with an empty signature.
- Release notes are generated by release:notes from the traceability
graph, which is what CLAUDE.md has asked for all along, instead of a
fixed heredoc that said "see CHANGELOG.md for detailed changes" and
linked "GitHub Issues" on a Gitea-hosted project.
- The notes tell users how to verify a download with SHA256SUMS.
Requirements UR-077 / DR-217, tests UT-208 (12 cases over the version
comparison and the platform decision, including that a pre-release does
not offer itself as an upgrade to the matching release).
Verified: 1070 frontend tests, cargo check for both the host and
aarch64-linux-android (confirming the plugins are absent there), clippy
-D warnings, svelte-check 0 errors.
