Building Go Binaries

All commands run from the Go module root (installer/).

Local Development Build

task build

Builds a snapshot binary for the current platform via GoReleaser. Output goes to ./bin/. This is the only command you need for local builds.

How It Works

• Task wraps GoReleaser in snapshot mode (no git tag required, single target)
• GoReleaser config: .goreleaser.yaml
• Task runner config: Taskfile.yml
• Version info is injected via ldflags at build time (see main.go for the variables)

When Builds Fail

1. Check that go mod tidy has been run (GoReleaser runs it as a pre-hook in release mode)
2. Check for compilation errors in the go build output
3. For GoReleaser-specific issues, read .goreleaser.yaml for the current configuration
