Make desktop installers discoverable at the start of Agent Canvas setup #1025

Closed

Description

@neubig

About 36 visitors requested a download/installer. Current setup.mdx puts desktop preview instructions last, below uninstall.

Acceptance criteria:

  • Include desktop preview in the initial install-method chooser and link directly to OS-specific installer instructions/releases.
  • Explain preview limitations and bundled Node/uv without requiring npm/source setup for installer users.
  • Verify Windows, macOS, and Linux download paths. This is discoverability work, not a request to build a new app.

Priority target: Medium. Schedule: OSS Cycle 42 (November 2–8, 2026), via the GitHub-imported Linear issue.

This issue was created by an AI agent (OpenHands) on behalf of Graham Neubig.

    Implementation PR for OSS-14878: #1061

    Adds desktop preview to the initial install-method chooser with OS-specific links, moves installer instructions ahead of command-line prerequisites, explains preview limitations and bundled Node.js/uv, and corrects published installer filenames.

    Validation: Mintlify build and broken-link checks passed; the latest-release page and Windows, macOS, Linux AppImage, and Linux DEB download URLs returned HTTP 200.
