* docs(spec): auto-update with stable + nightly channels
Design spec for channel-aware auto-update via electron-updater: stable
(manual semver releases) and nightly (daily CI cron, version
X.Y.(Z+1)-nightly.<UTC-ts>+<sha>). Covers runtime wiring, the feed,
the version scheme and its ordering/channel rationale, the nightly
pipeline, in-app UX (opt-in + channel + nightly disclaimer), error
handling, testing, and the deferred/prereq items (CI signing for macOS
updates, stable version stamping, polished UI in #2207).

* docs(plan): auto-update channels implementation plan
Bite-sized TDD plan for the in-app channel-aware updater + nightly pipeline:
nightly version compute module, daily cron workflow, macOS feed metadata,
~/.ao update-settings module, electron-updater shell + main.ts wiring, and the
first-run opt-in/channel/nightly-disclaimer prompt. Deferred items and Track-B
prereqs (CI signing, stable stamping) are called out.

* feat(release): nightly version compute module
computeNightlyVersion -> X.Y.(Z+1)-nightly.<UTC-ts>+<sha>: next-patch base,
fixed-width UTC timestamp for monotonic prerelease ordering, sha as build
metadata. Pure ESM so CI runs it and vitest tests it.

* feat(release): daily nightly build + publish workflow
Cron computes the nightly version from the latest stable tag, stamps it,
builds all platforms, and publishes a prerelease (nightly channel). Skips
when HEAD is already covered by the latest nightly. forge publisher prerelease
flag is now env-driven (AO_RELEASE_PRERELEASE) so stable stays non-prerelease.

* fix(release): pass nightly version via env, not inline interpolation
Avoids interpolating ${{ }} into the run script (GitHub Actions injection
hardening); the version now arrives via the NIGHTLY_VERSION env var.

* feat(update): persist auto-update settings under ~/.ao
readUpdateSettings/writeUpdateSettings store {enabled, channel, nightlyAck}
with safe defaults and channel coercion, atomic temp+rename like app-state.ts.

* feat(update): channel-aware electron-updater wiring
Replace update-electron-app (stable-only, no channels) with electron-updater
driven by the user's ~/.ao settings: channel from settings, allowDowngrade for
channel switches, auto-download gated on opt-in, errors swallowed. Feed
configured via setFeedURL since forge does not emit app-update.yml.

* style(update): tabs in auto-updater.ts to match repo prettier config

* feat(update): first-run opt-in + channel + nightly disclaimer prompt
Minimal main-process dialog flow: opt into auto-updates, pick stable/nightly,
and acknowledge a nightly instability/data-loss disclaimer. Persists the choice
to ~/.ao. Polished Settings-page selector is tracked in #2207.

* docs(spec): correct feed-yml premise (no platform emits it as built)
Final review verified that publish:null in both custom makers makes
electron-builder skip update-info yml generation on Windows and Linux too
(app-builder-lib PublishManager returns early before createUpdateInfoTasks),
not just signing-blocked macOS. The runtime updater is therefore inert on all
platforms until a separate feed-publishing workstream (yml gen+upload across
all 3 platforms, coupled to Track-B signing) lands. Recorded in the Feed
section and the prerequisites table.

* fix(release): nightly skip-guard must match the v<version> tag namespace
The forge publisher tags nightly releases v<version> (e.g.
v0.10.4-nightly.<ts>), not desktop-v..., so the no-new-commits guard queried a
namespace that never exists and never fired. Query v*-nightly.* instead.

* chore: format with prettier [skip ci]
* chore(release): run nightly at 19:00 IST (13:30 UTC)
Was 03:00 UTC (08:30 AM IST); move to 13:30 UTC = 7:00 PM IST.
