 1. `prepare-release` — bumps version in all 3 sync locations, generates release notes, tags.
 2. `verify` — runs all frontend + rust gates on Ubuntu (prevents shipping a broken release).
 3. `build-tauri` — matrix (macOS arm64, macOS x86_64, Ubuntu, Windows). `needs: [prepare-release, verify]`.
-4. `attach-app-bundles` — zips macOS .app artifacts into the release.
+
+Only user-facing installers are published: `.dmg` (macOS), `.msi` / `-setup.exe` (Windows), `.deb` / `.rpm` / `.AppImage` (Linux). The Tauri updater `.app.tar.gz` / `.sig` artifacts are suppressed via `bundle.createUpdaterArtifacts: false` — MarkDoc has no updater plugin, so those would only confuse users into downloading a non-installable bundle (see issue #10).
