Auto-updates

Lopload checks GitHub Releases for a new version:

  • on startup, and
  • at most every 24 hours while the app stays open.

When an update is available you get a “restart to update” prompt — never a forced or silent update.

Updates are signed with a minisign keypair and verified before install. The public key ships in the app’s src-tauri/tauri.conf.json; there is no paid code-signing certificate involved.

Tagged release builds sign updater artifacts with a private key held in the main repo’s CI secrets, so a fork needs its own keypair. The one-time setup (generating a keypair, updating the updater config, adding CI secrets) is documented in the README.
