Research direction
Start by reproducing the update from Gopeed 1.6.11 on macOS and inspect the built-in updater output, especially the missing assets/exec/updater error. The fix is complete when the app updates to 1.7.0 directly instead of opening the GitHub Release page, without that asset-loading failure.
