Amber CLI 2.0.5

Amber CLI 2.0.5

Amber CLI 2.0.5 makes production-safe static assets part of the same supported
Amber V2 web-app path as Grant, Micrate, and SQLite. A fresh application starts
with editable CSS, JavaScript, SVG, and font locations; a deterministic asset
manifest; manifest-aware ECR helpers; and browser-correct production headers.

Start a complete web app

amber new pet_tracker --type web
cd pet_tracker
shards install
amber assets check

crystal spec
amber watch

Open http://127.0.0.1:3000/ and http://127.0.0.1:3000/pets. The homepage
uses the same Amber design language as the framework site and references
fingerprinted files from public/assets/manifest.json.

What changed

• Added amber assets build for deterministic fingerprinting and
  amber assets check for strict release verification.
• Moved authored browser files to app/assets/; generated files under
  public/assets/ are ignored and may be rebuilt at any time.
• Rewrites local CSS URLs and JavaScript module references to their
  fingerprinted image, font, stylesheet, and module targets.
• Generates manifest-aware stylesheet, import-map, preload, image, and favicon
  tags, including Subresource Integrity metadata where browsers support it.
• Rebuilds assets before application compilation in amber watch, including
  file additions, changes, and deletions.
• Boots generated applications in Unix and Windows CI and requests the real
  HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SVG, and compressed-asset paths instead of treating a
  successful compile as sufficient evidence.
• Publishes CLI archives for Apple Silicon macOS, x86_64 Linux, and ARM64 Linux;
  Windows x86_64 remains a source-build path with a release-gated app smoke.
• Replaces the native preview generator's old personal and feature branches
  with the canonical Amber beta, released Asset Pipeline, and exact reviewed
  dependency revisions. Its documented make setup now fails visibly when
  dependencies cannot install instead of hiding the error.

Grant, SQLite, Micrate migrations, and generated HTML resource CRUD remain the
default persistence contract from CLI 2.0.4. Native applications,
authentication generators, and generated APIs remain preview surfaces.
