There was a problem hiding this comment.
We're missing the TS apphost.ts here, even if we don't have code for it - we should at least have something in a corresponding message that calls out missing support in TS.

mainbecauserelease/13.4does not yet exist onmicrosoft/aspire.dev(the milestone13.4resolved torelease/13.4, but that branch was not found in this repo).Why this PR is needed
PR #16589 adds a significant new user-facing API —
AddHelmChart— that lets AppHost authors install external Helm charts (cert-manager, NGINX ingress, monitoring tools, etc.) as post-deploy pipeline steps alongside the application's own generated Helm chart. This capability has no prior documentation on aspire.dev.What was changed
