ZacharyZhang-NY 86e3724310 F8: distribution and GitHub-Releases self-update
- .github/workflows/release.yml: on tag v* build all 5 targets (macOS
  arm64/x86_64, Linux arm64/x86_64 incl. free arm runners, Windows
  x86_64) with the release-dist profile, archive kigi-<version>-<triple>
  with LICENSE/NOTICE/THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES, generate SHA256SUMS, publish
  the release (prerelease for tags containing '-'), with a tag↔workspace
  version guard.
- install.sh / install.ps1 (repo root): platform detection, latest or
  --version download from GitHub Releases, SHA-256 verification against
  SHA256SUMS, install into the kigi home's downloads/ + bin/kigi symlink
  (the same layout the self-updater manages), smoke test, PATH guidance.
- kigi-update rewritten onto the GitHub Releases API (documented wire
  shape; stable=/latest, alpha=semver-max across the list, pinned=/tags):
  SHA-256 gate before any binary swap, tar.gz/zip extraction per
  platform, atomic bin/kigi symlink swap, channel/rollback semantics and
  the KIGI_AUTO_UPDATE gate preserved verbatim; every x.ai/GCS/npm
  endpoint deleted, npm/gh-release installers removed, legacy grok/agent
  links retired on install. kigi-env owns the update base URL with a
  KIGI_UPDATE_BASE_URL override (this is what the test artifact server
  injects).
- .cargo/config.toml: removed the non-portable neoverse-v2 CPU pin on
  Linux arm64 (fleet-specific); RELRO/NX hardening link-args now apply
  to the gnu targets too, matching the release-dist profile's contract.
- THIRD-PARTY-NOTICES regenerated via cargo-about (about.toml +
  template); the M0 hand-built file is dropped and README points at the
  generated one. docs/RELEASE.md carries the release checklist.
- Deleted xAI-era leftovers: kigi-tui/scripts/install*.{sh,ps1} (x.ai
  CDN) and the @xai-official/grok npm skeleton (PRD F8: no npm).

Gates: fmt clean; workspace check/clippy 0/0 (--locked, -D warnings);
kigi-update 58 lib + 86 integration tests green; deny ok;
release-dist build of kigi-bin succeeds and reports 'kigi 0.1.0'.

kigi-tui

Terminal UI (TUI) for Grok Build. Provides the interactive full-screen interface including the scrollback view, prompt input, session management, and all modal dialogs.

Key Concepts

  • AppView — owns the welcome screen, agent sessions, and global config
  • AgentView — one per session; owns the prompt, scrollback, tool panes, and modals
  • PromptWidget — text editor component with file search (@), slash commands (/), history search, and paste elements
  • Action/Effect — Elm-style architecture: input → Action → dispatch → Effect → state update

Keyboard Shortcuts

Esc Turn running No-op (does not cancel; use Ctrl+C)
Esc Esc Idle, non-empty prompt Clear prompt (within 800ms; first press shows hint)
Esc Esc Idle, empty prompt + messages Open rewind picker (silent first press)
Ctrl+M Prompt Toggle multiline mode
Shift+Enter Prompt Insert newline
/ Prompt Start slash command
@ Prompt Start file search
