Releases were created as drafts for one stated reason: nobody had run the
plugin in the OBS GUI on any platform, so a human had to look before anything
became visible. The first confirmed GUI load (Windows, OBS 32.2.2 on Windows
11, 2026-09-09) retired that gate, so `publish-release.sh` now posts
`"draft": False` and the workflow no longer needs a human click.

The caveats did not go away, they moved: the generated release notes now lead
with what is actually confirmed (module loads and registers its source type,
Windows only) and what is not (video rendering, A/V sync, latency, mid-show
publisher restart, Linux and macOS in the GUI at all), and the per-platform
table carries the rest.

Also fixes the third and last copy of the wrong Windows install path. The
release notes template told every downloader to extract into
`%APPDATA%\obs-studio\plugins\`, which on Windows is OBS's config directory
and is never scanned for plugins -- that is what stopped a director's
correctly-shaped install from loading. The notes now carry a per-platform
table (`C:\ProgramData\obs-studio\plugins\` on Windows), the exact finished
path, a warning about Explorer's "Extract All..." wrapper folder, and how to
confirm the load in the OBS log. Both failure modes are silent, which is
precisely why they belong in the notes.

Note the tradeoff now that nothing is held back: assets upload after the
release row is created, so a release is briefly visible with no files
attached. Called out in the script header.

Verified by rendering the heredoc with a stub tag: backslash escaping survives
into correct markdown, and the YAML parses.

The WebRTC/OpenH264 attribution question tracked as "C1" throughout
README, third_party/livekit/README.md, the release-notes template, and
both workflow header comments is the project owner's call, and it has
been made -- own sign-off given and reaffirmed. Remove the gate
language and the extended research writeup from release-facing docs;
keep the actual LICENSE/NOTICE files themselves (Apache-2.0 requires
shipping those regardless of any of this).

Also simplify the release notes' install instructions per owner
request: point at each platform's default OBS plugins folder rather
than walking through verbose per-platform copy/extract instructions --
the archives already extract straight into place (prior commit), so a
short pointer is all that's needed.

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 e050b81d6c ci: stop re-downloading CMake/Ninja on every Windows run

lukka/get-cmake@latest re-fetched and re-extracted CMake + Ninja on
every single Windows CI run. Its own cache (routed through this
act_runner's built-in cache server) reported "Cloud cache miss" on
every run, even one immediately after a run that logged a successful
save under the exact same key -- an incompatibility between its
bundled cache client and this act_runner's cache-server implementation,
not a config gap. Separately and more importantly: the archive
extraction step alone measured ~7.5 minutes for a 45MB zip on this VM,
consistent with Defender real-time scanning rather than raw disk I/O.
Together this was the dominant cost of every Windows CI run.

CMake 4.4.2 and Ninja 1.12.1 are now installed once, directly on the
winvm-builder VM's system PATH (C:\BuildTools\cmake, C:\BuildTools\
ninja), sidestepping the third-party action's cache entirely rather
than debugging its internals further. Both Windows jobs now just
verify cmake/ninja are present and fail loudly if not, instead of
silently falling back to a slow reinstall. Full detail, including how
to redo this if the VM is ever rebuilt, is in README's new "Windows
runner: persistent build tools" section -- this is VM state, not
something git reproduces.

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 43a501c06c release: package archives as direct drop-ins to OBS plugin dirs
Release / macOS (macos-latest) (push) Successful in 43s
Release / Linux (ubuntu-24.04) (push) Successful in 51s
Build / Windows (windows-latest) (push) Successful in 10m43s
Build / Linux (ubuntu-24.04) (push) Successful in 52s
Build / macOS (macos-latest) (push) Successful in 28s
Release / Windows (windows-latest) (push) Failing after 16m46s
Release / Create Gitea Release (draft) (push) Skipped
Previously each release zip mirrored build/package/ verbatim (bin/ +
data/ at the archive root), which needed a manual mkdir + cp -r into
the right OBS plugin subdirectory per the install instructions. Wrap
Linux and Windows archives in a top-level streamer-tools-camera/
directory instead -- matching AddExtraModulePaths()'s expected
<config>/obs-studio/plugins/<name>/bin/64bit + data layout -- so
`unzip -d ~/.config/obs-studio/plugins/` (or Expand-Archive to
%APPDATA%\obs-studio\plugins\ on Windows) is the entire install step.

macOS already produced the right shape (the .plugin bundle itself at
the archive's top level, since OBS wants the whole bundle directly
under plugins/, not nested under a named subdirectory) -- no packaging
change needed there, just an install-instructions rewrite plus making
that text properly conditional on MACOS_BUNDLE_FOUND like MACOS_NOTE
already was, since the old hard-coded "not yet that bundle shape" text
was stale once the macOS bundle packaging fix landed.

Verified locally: staged a fake build/package/ tree, ran the new
packaging logic, and confirmed extracting the resulting zip into a
plugins directory produces <name>/bin/64bit/... and <name>/data/...
directly. Also dry-ran publish-release.sh's notes generation for both
MACOS_BUNDLE_FOUND values to confirm the conditional install text
renders correctly.

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 85e2d08f18 ci: fix Windows step shell -- use powershell, not pwsh
Build / macOS (macos-latest) (push) Successful in 36s
Build / Linux (ubuntu-24.04) (push) Successful in 1m1s
Build / Windows (windows-latest) (push) Failing after 9m20s
Real verification push (2b216d3) caught this: explicitly setting
shell: pwsh made the Windows job fail immediately with "Cannot find:
pwsh in PATH". winvm-builder only has the in-box Windows PowerShell 5.1
(powershell.exe), not PowerShell Core -- which is exactly why the original
inline build.yml steps never set `shell:` at all and just relied on the
implicit default. Switched both workflows' Windows steps to
`shell: powershell` explicitly instead of leaving it implicit, so future
edits can't reintroduce this by copying a pwsh example from elsewhere.

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 2b216d3d75 ci: add tag-triggered release packaging workflow
Build / macOS (macos-latest) (push) Successful in 33s
Build / Linux (ubuntu-24.04) (push) Successful in 54s
Build / Windows (windows-latest) (push) Failing after 7m50s
Adds .gitea/workflows/release.yml, triggered only on a pushed v* tag, which
builds all three platforms (reusing the exact same configure/build/test
commands as build.yml, now factored out into .gitea/scripts/ so the two
workflows can't drift), zips each platform's build/package/ output, and
creates a draft Gitea Release with the archives attached.

This is packaging automation only -- it does not resolve or bypass the C1
WebRTC/OpenH264 release gate documented in README.md's Status section.
Nothing publishes until a human deliberately pushes a version tag (which
should not happen before owner sign-off) and then explicitly publishes the
resulting draft. The generated release notes lead with a restatement of the
open C1 question specifically so that second step can't be taken by
accident.

build.yml is refactored (not rewritten) to call the same shared scripts;
its job/step behavior is otherwise unchanged.
