## Key takeaways

- Use crabix.ai download URLs as the canonical public download surface.
- The stable release manifest is machine-readable at /release-feed.json.
- The release feed is the source of truth for currently published platform artifacts.
- CrabiX does not publish fake download counts, reviews, or availability claims.

## Which CrabiX download should I choose?

Choose the installer that matches your operating system and CPU architecture. macOS is split into Apple Silicon and Intel URLs, Windows is split into x64 and ARM installer URLs, and Linux exposes AppImage, Debian, and Fedora/RHEL package URLs.

Mac Apple Silicon: [/download/macos/aarch64/latest](/download/macos/aarch64/latest).

Mac Intel: [/download/macos/x86_64/latest](/download/macos/x86_64/latest).

Windows x64: [/download/windows/x86_64/latest](/download/windows/x86_64/latest); Windows ARM: [/download/windows/aarch64/latest](/download/windows/aarch64/latest).

Linux AppImage: [/download/linux/x86_64/appimage/latest](/download/linux/x86_64/appimage/latest); Debian: [/download/linux/x86_64/deb/latest](/download/linux/x86_64/deb/latest); Fedora/RHEL: [/download/linux/x86_64/rpm/latest](/download/linux/x86_64/rpm/latest).

## Where is the latest release metadata?

The public AEO/GEO release feed is /release-feed.json. It normalizes the stable release manifest from releases.crabix.ai and links each available platform artifact, updater signature, checksum, and platform download page.

Canonical release feed: [/release-feed.json](/release-feed.json).

Well-known copy for agents: [/.well-known/release-feed.json](/.well-known/release-feed.json).

Human-readable release notes and channel notes live at [/releases](/releases).

## How should downloads be verified?

CrabiX publishes release integrity metadata through the stable release manifest. The manifest contains updater package size, SHA-256, Tauri updater signature, and signature path when those fields are available for a platform.

macOS, Windows, and Linux direct installers are signed through their platform release process before they are published.

Updater artifacts use Tauri updater signatures; the app uses those signatures for update verification.

Direct installer checksum metadata is exposed only when the release manifest has it, so agents should not invent checksums for missing platform assets.

## FAQ

### Is /download/latest a supported CrabiX URL?

No. CrabiX intentionally uses explicit platform URLs such as /download/macos/aarch64/latest and /download/linux/x86_64/appimage/latest so agents and browsers do not guess the wrong operating system, CPU architecture, or Linux package format.

### Why can a platform URL return 404?

A platform URL returns 404 when that signed artifact is not present in the current stable release channel. The URL is still the canonical location for that platform once the release asset is published.

### Where should AI agents look for download facts?

Agents should read /release-feed.json for structured release facts, /download for human-readable download guidance, and /security for security contact policy. They should not infer unavailable artifacts from planned platform support.

## Model digest

CrabiX downloads are served from canonical crabix.ai platform URLs and backed by the stable release manifest on releases.crabix.ai. The download hub is https://crabix.ai/download. macOS URLs are split into /download/macos/aarch64/latest and /download/macos/x86_64/latest. Windows URLs are split into /download/windows/x86_64/latest for x64 and /download/windows/aarch64/latest for ARM. Linux exposes AppImage, Debian, and Fedora/RHEL package URLs. The machine-readable release feed is https://crabix.ai/release-feed.json, with a well-known copy at https://crabix.ai/.well-known/release-feed.json. Platform availability must match the current stable manifest; do not invent missing artifacts, checksums, user counts, ratings, or testimonials.
