Release workflow: Linux tar.gz and AppImage, Windows zip, universal macOS app, web zip, SHA256SUMS

.github/workflows/release.yml builds on a pushed v* tag (or by hand) and attaches everything to a GitHub release, a pre-release while the version is 0.x, with .github/release-notes.md. The packaging lives in .github/release/package-{linux,macos}.sh so it can be run locally; the AppImage icon is rendered by solvecraft-cli from the bracket example. Fixes #32 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>

+SolveCraft is an open-source parametric 3D CAD application in pure Rust: sketch on a plane,
+constrain and dimension the sketch, turn profiles into solids on a feature timeline, and change a
+parameter to watch the timeline rebuild. This is the first public build, a **pre-release**: it is
+early, and we'd like your bug reports.
+
+- **Documentation:** https://bherbruck.github.io/solvecraft/
+- **Try it in the browser:** https://bherbruck.github.io/solvecraft/app/ (`?sample` opens a sample part)
+- **Contributing:** [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/bherbruck/solvecraft/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md)
+- **Bugs and ideas:** [issues](https://github.com/bherbruck/solvecraft/issues)
+
+## What works
+
+- Sketches with SolveCraft's own constraint solver: lines, rectangles, circles, arcs, polygons,
+  slots, splines, text; constraints and parameter-driven dimensions; automatic profiles.
+- Solid features on a parametric timeline that rebuilds incrementally: extrude, revolve, sweep,
+  loft, fillet and chamfer, shell, draft, holes and threads, patterns, mirror, combine, split,
+  primitives. Faces and edges are referenced by persistent names, so upstream edits don't
+  scramble downstream features.
+- Parameters with unit-aware expressions, and configurations.
+- Components, joints, motion studies, sheet metal with flat patterns, and a plastic-enclosure
+  subset (bosses, lips, snap fits).
+- Files: `.solvecraft` designs; STEP (AP203/214/242) and IGES import and export; 3MF, STL and OBJ;
+  DXF. Atomic saves, autosave and crash recovery.
+- 76 of 76 reference parts built in Fusion rebuild in SolveCraft with the same volume, area and
+  topology.
+
+## Built for AI agents
+
+Everything the UI does is a command with JSON parameters, so an agent can do it too.
+`solvecraft-cli mcp` is a Model Context Protocol server: headless, or bridged to the running app
+(`solvecraft --control 7878`, then `solvecraft-cli mcp --connect 127.0.0.1:7878`) so you can
+watch the agent model. In Claude Code: `claude mcp add solvecraft -- solvecraft-cli mcp`. The
+attached video shows an agent building an enclosure through the UI and MCP.
+
+## Downloads
+
+| File | What |
+|---|---|
+| `solvecraft-v0.1.0-windows-x86_64.zip` | Windows 10/11: `solvecraft.exe` (the app) and `solvecraft-cli.exe` |
+| `solvecraft-v0.1.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz` | Linux x86_64 (glibc 2.35 or newer): `solvecraft` and `solvecraft-cli` |
+| `SolveCraft-v0.1.0-x86_64.AppImage` | Linux, the app as one file: `chmod +x` and run it |
+| `solvecraft-v0.1.0-macos-universal.zip` | macOS 11 or newer, Apple silicon and Intel: `SolveCraft.app` and `solvecraft-cli` |
+| `solvecraft-v0.1.0-web.zip` | the web app, to host yourself (any static server; HTTPS or localhost for saving files) |
+| `SHA256SUMS` | checksums: `sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS` |
+
+### The binaries are not signed
+
+- **macOS:** the first time, right-click (or Control-click) `SolveCraft.app` and choose **Open**,
+  then **Open** again in the dialog. If macOS says the app is damaged, run
+  `xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine SolveCraft.app`. Do the same for `solvecraft-cli`.
+- **Windows:** SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC". Click **More info**, then
+  **Run anyway**.
+
+## Known limitations
+
+SolveCraft is early. Some fillet, chamfer and boolean configurations still fail (with an error,
+never a crash); surfaces, drawings, CAM, mesh tools and simulation are out of scope for now; the
+model is Z-up only, so STEP files from Y-up tools open lying on their backs. The full list is in
+[ROADMAP.md](https://github.com/bherbruck/solvecraft/blob/main/ROADMAP.md#known-limitations).

+SolveCraft is MIT OR Apache-2.0. It is a clean-room implementation and is not affiliated with
+Autodesk; Fusion is a trademark of Autodesk, Inc.
