Qualify Windows desktop installers in GitHub Actions and promote verified Windows/macOS assets from one frozen SHA. Use for cloud packaging, installer failures, or GitHub Release publication; not local packaging or macOS qualification.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# GitHub Desktop Release Treat a desktop release as a state machine, not a build command. Keep application implementation, platform qualification, artifact identity, and public GitHub Release state as separate evidence boundaries. `electron-development` owns Electron macOS build and qualification. This Skill may validate a macOS qualification artifact before promotion, but does not take over that platform's build work. ## Pick the smallest justified cloud path Classify the request before spending runner time. Do not turn a past infrastructure failure into a permanent requirement for every release. - **Compatibility preflight**: a read-only or non-promotable check that proves each requested platform can receive the frozen source: runner label availability, locked-install viability, expected architecture/native binding load, and resolved asset plan. It produces no installer and cannot justify publication. - **Standard Windows qualification**: the default for ordinary application-source releases when the Windows installer, upgrade path, Electron/Node ABI, signing policy, and installer configuration are unchanged. It builds one installer and proves core installability. …

How to install
mdr add ethanyoq/skill-hub/github-desktop-release@sha256:cf312167b6a4fbd3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260829.3fe0b55, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
