What’s Changed
v1.8.1 focuses on release reliability and safer downloads. Release artifacts now include generated SHA-256 checksum data, and the documentation has been expanded to help users verify downloaded installers before running them.
The code signing and download verification guidance has also been updated. This makes it clearer how to confirm that a downloaded package matches the published release assets.
This release also improves the Windows distribution workflow. The winget manifest submission automation was added and hardened so new releases can be submitted more consistently.
