Release asset rule
GitHub source snapshots are useful for reading source. They are not the release package users should install.
// public warning
The rule
Do not use GitHub Code > Download ZIP as the install package. Use the release asset only.
The source snapshot may unpack under a repository-named directory and include source-only structure. The release asset is the canonical install package with release filtering and validation applied.
