Summary
AI summaryPrevents automatic, non‑consensual application restarts during background update checks.
Full changelog
This is a critical bug fix preventing automatic, non-consensual application restarts during background update checks.
Summary:
- Safe Update Installation: Background updates are now only downloaded and prepared. The installation will never trigger automatically or force-close the application. Instead, the update is staged and waits until you click "Restart App!" to apply.
Details:
- Decoupled Update Stages: Separated retrieval and installation in [src/platform/updater.js](file:///e:/project/featherMD/src/platform/updater.js) by migrating from
update.downloadAndInstall()to sequential calls ofupdate.download()andupdate.install(). - Specification Sync: Documented the new state transition lifecycles in [PRD.md](file:///e:/project/featherMD/artifacts/docs/PRD.md).
