0.2.4 - 2026-08-28

Release Notes

Added

• Installers, and a Homebrew tap. A release carried platform archives and
  nothing to install them with: you had to find the right .tar.xz, check its
  hash, unpack it and put the binary on PATH by hand. Shell and PowerShell
  installers now ship alongside the archives, and a formula lands in
  build198x/homebrew-tap
  (#31):

  brew install build198x/homebrew-tap/build198x
  

  The tool itself is unchanged — this release is how you get it, not what it
  does.

Other

• mediaspec198x now tags and cuts its own release, and the binary release run
  answers only to build198x-v* tags
  (#30). Nothing changes for
  this tool; a spec release can no longer start a CLI release.
