release/13.5based on the source PR milestone13.5.Why
PR #18522 renamed the VS Code extension command Aspire: Install Aspire CLI (stable) to Aspire: Install Aspire CLI and replaced the old stable/daily two-command split with a single package-manager picker (WinGet / Homebrew / npm / .NET tool / mise) plus a shell-safe Daily build (dev) option and a link to the full installation guide. The docs still referenced the old command name, which no longer exists.
