Desktop updates should be easy without becoming invisible.
In ChaseOS Studio V1.0.6, a correctly published signed release appears inside Studio. The operator can review the version and changelog, choose Update now, and let Studio complete the accepted update path.
What the update lane does
After approval, Studio:
- downloads the published Windows release
- verifies the expected file size and SHA-256
- checks the Windows signature
- preserves the user-owned workspace outside the installer
- installs the accepted version
- reopens Studio after the update
The important part is what it does not do: V1.0.6 is not a silent background updater. The operator still chooses when the update runs.
Why we built it this way
The usual desktop update flow sends people back to a website, asks them to find the right installer, and makes them wonder whether their workspace will survive. For an AI control plane, that friction is especially distracting.
ChaseOS keeps the release decision visible inside the product while still treating the published artifact, its signature and its verification record as the source of truth.
What has been verified
The V1.0.5 to V1.0.6 Windows lifecycle was tested through the shipped updater path. That includes replacing the installed version, reopening Studio, and preserving the workspace sentinel used in acceptance testing.
Later versions can use the same lane when they are correctly published. That is release infrastructure, not a promise that every future build will install itself without review.

The broader product remains local-first: ChaseOS coordinates runtimes, memory, approvals and connectors while keeping operator authority explicit.
