MFA-Forge v0.1.22-rc.22

MFA-Forge 0.1.22-rc.22

0.1.22-rc.22 is the first public RC in this line where the installed product is expected to auto-check GitHub for a newer prerelease when the GUI opens, delegating discovery, checksum verification, and MSI handoff to mfa-forge-launcher.exe.

Scope

• release line: RC22
• numeric version: 0.1.22
• RC tag: v0.1.22-rc.22
• intended MSI asset: MFA-Forge-RC22-x64.msi
• intended checksum asset: MFA-Forge-RC22-x64.msi.sha256.txt

User-facing updater behavior

• the installed GUI now triggers the launcher-driven update check when the main window opens
• the launcher now discovers the latest GitHub prerelease RC instead of assuming a hard-coded immediate next RC
• the manual update action remains available and now checks for the latest published prerelease RC as well

Validation target for this release

• exact installed baseline: local RC21 installed on the host
• exact release target: published RC22 GitHub prerelease assets
• exact path to prove: RC21 installed -> open GUI -> launcher discovers RC22 -> checksum verification -> Windows Installer handoff -> installed binaries become 0.1.22
