Desktop Release Runbook

This is the shortest repeatable path to produce downloadable installers and publish them for users.

Pre-release Requirements

  • Signing secrets configured in GitHub Actions:
    • CSC_LINK, CSC_KEY_PASSWORD
    • APPLE_ID, APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD, APPLE_TEAM_ID
    • WIN_CSC_LINK, WIN_CSC_KEY_PASSWORD
    • LINUX_SIGNING_KEY
  • desktop-release workflow green on default branch.

1. Create release tag

git checkout main
git pull --ff-only
git tag v0.1.0
git push origin v0.1.0

2. CI build + publish

  • GitHub Actions runs .github/workflows/desktop-release.yml on the tag.
  • Required matrix targets:
    • macOS x64, arm64
    • Windows x64
    • Linux x64, arm64
  • The workflow publishes a GitHub Release with installer files and integrity files.

3. Verify release output

  • Confirm release assets include installers for all required targets.
  • Confirm release-manifest.json and checksums.txt are attached.
  • Confirm validate-release-evidence job passed.
  • Confirm signing/notarization gate passed for each target.

4. Manual sign-off

  • Complete MANUAL_SIGNOFF_TEMPLATE.md:
    • One human run on macOS, Windows, and Linux
    • First-run setup + recording/transcription/note generation sanity

5. Mark GA ready
