T3 Code Shifts npm CLI to GitHub Binary
T3 Code’s npm package is now a thin launcher that downloads the server binary from GitHub Releases. The change preserves `npx t3` convenience while addressing reliability issues with npm-based installs.
// ANALYSIS
This is a pragmatic packaging fix: npm remains the easy entry point, while compiled binaries become the dependable distribution format.
- –Moves platform-specific server artifacts out of npm’s dependency and install path
- –Keeps `npx t3` viable for quick trials and existing users
- –Standalone archives remain preferable for pinned, repeatable, or service-based deployments
- –GitHub availability becomes a runtime dependency for fresh npm launches
- –Signals T3 Code is maturing toward a release-archive-first architecture
