Releases

Current public release: CLI binaries.

DraftPilot's public release is the standalone CLI for macOS, Linux, and Windows. Desktop app packaging is in preview and will get a separate update feed once published.

CLI updates

The CLI reads the release manifest, verifies SHA-256 before replacing itself, and prints detailed release notes when the manifest provides them.

Improved CLI packaging for local machines, Linux VMs, and SSH-oriented workflows.

Added scientific-poster generation workflows with a stronger landscape poster template and section-selection controls.
