## Package and update
Set `CAPSULE_DEFAULT_SITE=https://ttp.joeykimsey.com` in `.env` (copy `.env.example`) or in the shell before `npm run dev` or a build. This non-secret setting is embedded at build time and defaults to the demo URL above. It prefills both sign-in forms and supplies the logged-out logo; a saved or connected site takes precedence. It does not select the update feed or connect/sign in automatically. Rebuild installed packages after changing it.
For automatic-update testing without a signing certificate, use the separate `dist:test-bootstrap` and `dist:test` commands described in [Free automatic-update testing](docs/releases.md#free-automatic-update-testing). Original Local installations require one bootstrap installation; subsequent test updates use the in-app updater.
`npm run dist:win` builds a per-user Windows x64 installer at `dist/local/Capsule-Local-0.1.1-x64-Setup.exe` (the filename follows the package version). This unsigned **Capsule Local** build has its own installation and session directory; automatic updates are disabled. To update a 0.1.0 test installation, close Capsule Local and run the 0.1.1 installer under the same Windows account. Reopen it and confirm the dashboard says “you have updated to 0.1.1”; the installer preserves app data. This manual test does not publish to the signed release feed. `npm run pack:win` produces an unpacked app for inspection. `npm test` checks updater behavior and release validation.
Public builds use `npm run release:win`, require a permanent HTTPS update URL and Windows signing identity, and go to `dist/release/`. They download updates in the background and offer **Restart to update**, including before sign-in. Closing the app normally does not install an update. A closed app checks after its next launch.
Public builds use `npm run release:win`, require a permanent HTTPS update URL and Windows signing identity, and go to `dist/release/`. Update-enabled builds check automatically 15 seconds after launch and every four hours. An available update shows a blue **Download update** banner; downloading requires that click. After verification, the blue banner offers **Restart to update**, including before sign-in. Closing the app normally does not install an update. A closed app checks after its next launch.
Read [Packaging and releases](docs/releases.md) for signing variables, hosting requirements, the release automation entry point, and the installed-upgrade acceptance test. No public feed or signing credentials are configured in this checkout.
