Merged
Conversation
- Split x64 and arm64 into parallel matrix jobs (was sequential) - Switch from macos-15-intel to macos-latest (Apple Silicon) - Override mac compression to 'normal' (was 'maximum') - Add preflight job: lint, check, build, test once; cache dist/ - Add Electron binary caching (~/.cache/electron, ~/.cache/electron-builder) - Add merge-latest-mac.mjs script to combine x64/arm64 update manifests - Set mac artifactName with arch qualifier for electron-updater - Enable asar.smartUnpack for faster packaging - Disable unused DMG writeUpdateInfo
