## Description

Release BaoCut Electron desktop apps through GitHub Actions tags by default; use local/manual packaging only when explicitly requested. Also handles App version bumps, release continuation and portable signing backups; excludes craft skills and legacy standalone CLI releases.

# BaoCut desktop releases

This is the Electron v3 App (`com.baocut.app`). The older baocut-app skill is a
reference, not this checkout's executable workflow. Keep this developer skill
outside the App's craft `skills/`; do not invoke legacy GPUI/npm/Homebrew releases.

## Select the workflow

| User intent | Read and follow |
| --- | --- |
| Ordinary release/publish request; no method specified | [Tag release](references/tag-release.md), **default**. Push the frozen source tag; publish verified Mac arm64 first, then append Windows CPU/CUDA/Vulkan to the same Release. |
| Explicit local package/candidate, traditional or manual release, single-platform recovery/continuation | [Traditional release](references/traditional-release.md). Honor the requested platforms and local-only/public scope. |
| Signing identity, portable backups or GitHub credentials only | [Signing/backups](references/signing-backups.md). Do not create a tag or publish. |

Load only the reference needed for the selected intent. Do not ask users to choose
between the two release methods when they have not specified one: use tag release.
Do not silently fall back to traditional packaging after an Actions failure.
A specific local-only or platform-only instruction overrides the default all-platform
scope; follow the user's explicit method and limits.
