The packaged app is manually updated by downloading dmg files; today's extension capabilities shipped to main but the released app (v0.1.0) predates them, which broke an extension install with an accurate-but-stale 'unknown capability' error. The release pipeline already produces electron-updater's full feed (latest-mac.yml + blockmaps on every release) — the app just never reads it.
Intended behavior
Packaged app checks GitHub (public repo, anonymous) for a newer stable release on launch (rate-limited) and on demand via the app menu
