Checks the GitHub releases for newer desktop-v tags once per launch and every 24h (15s timeout, no identifying headers, offline = silent retry). A dismissible banner and a Settings About row surface the newer version and link the release page; dismissal persists per version so each release nags at most once. No auto-install: unsigned builds cannot, by platform constraint; the checker only notifies. App 364/364 (+24), typechecks + build green.

Daily GitHub releases check for newer desktop-v tags; dismissible per-version banner + Settings status linking the release page. No identifying headers; no auto-install (needs Developer ID signing). Mirrors the menubar UpdateChecker's behavior where applicable. App 364/364.
