Conversation
Deleting a same-day GitHub release by hand and then dispatching build-pre-release leaves every installer without a package for the whole rebuild — a user hit a 404 for ~2 h. The workflow already replaces a same-tag pre-release at the end of the run, after the three platforms have validated, in about 50 seconds. Add the four-step runbook to the README and point the dispatch form at it: mark the existing release as a pre-release first, never delete it.

Deleting a same-day release by hand and then dispatching build-pre-release leaves installers without a package for the whole rebuild (a user hit a 404 for about two hours on 2026-09-15). The workflow already swaps a same-tag
pre-release at the end of the run, in about 50 seconds. This adds the four-step runbook to the README and points the dispatch form at it: mark the release as pre-release first, never delete it. Documentation only; no job logic changes.
