The npm launcher and Mac app are separate releases. Publishing one does not update the other.

Current limits

Public GitHub repositories only.
Recipients need full Xcode, compatible dependencies/capabilities, and their own Apple signing identity.
Updates are chosen explicitly. The Mac must be awake; the iPhone client syncs while active. Background APNs update notifications are not implemented.
Menlo on iPhone is required for fresh-start intent creation, and optional when trying a linked app.
Another person’s complete public-download-to-iPhone installation has not been recorded as physically accepted.
