+## Releases
+
+`devloop` releases are tag-driven. Push a tag such as `v0.8.0` and the
+platform release workflows publish the Linux and macOS archives.

+GitHub release notes are generated from the matching section in
+`CHANGELOG.md`, not from GitHub's automatic PR summary. The Linux
+release job publishes the changelog text and compare link; the macOS job
+only attaches its archive asset to that same release.
