Research direction

Start with the repository's release packaging and the mise entry point, then reproduce the Linux installation shown in the issue. Check how the Linux tar archive names its binary and how the macOS launcher differs; done means mise use github:1jehuang/jcode makes jcode available on Linux.

Description

autonomous: no enhancement triage: needs-decision

Installation through mise currently is not clean on linux because the release tar binary is not named "jcode" but "jcode-linux-x86_64".

Could we change that? (also maybe only ship one binary and get rid of the launcher script like on MacOS)

❯ mise use github:1jehuang/jcode
github:1jehuang/jcode@0.77.1 extract jcode-linux-x86_64.tar.gz                                                                           ✔
