What's Changed

Diagnostic release for the auto-update flow. The "downloading then can't connect to git server" failure had no breadcrumb beyond a transient UI string; this release fixes that.

  • Update log at data/logs/updates.log — every update check, download progress milestone, and error is now persisted. Open it from Settings → Updates → "View update log".
  • Actionable error messages — the failure shown in Settings now includes the underlying error code (ENOTFOUND, ECONNRESET, ERR_UPDATER_*) and the phase ("while checking for updates" vs "while downloading"), so a failed metadata fetch is distinguishable from a stalled installer download.
  • Defense in depth — added release-assets.githubusercontent.com to the network-filter allowlist alongside the legacy objects.githubusercontent.com (GitHub's current asset CDN host for release downloads).

This release does not directly fix the underlying download failure — it surfaces it. The next failed update attempt on a v0.8.1+ install will be diagnosable from the log file rather than guesswork.

  • fix(updates): file-backed log + actionable error messages by @Daelso in #34
