The launcher advertises Windows/macOS/Linux support but several paths were Windows-only or ignored the host CPU architecture, so a non-x86_64 or non-Windows user could get the wrong asset or a crash. github_api: _parse_release grouped assets per OS family and picked the asset matching the host arch (platform.machine, normalized) instead of letting the last asset in the list win; it now also parses macOS assets. Single-arch releases still install via arch fallback. Added select_asset()/platform_key() helpers that resolve the correct asset for the running host from a release dict or sqlite3.Row. database: added macos_* columns with an additive, idempotent migration (ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN guarded by OperationalError, since SQLite has no ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS) so existing DBs upgrade in place. launcher: resolve tmc_pc.exe on Windows and bare tmc_pc elsewhere, and restore the exec bit before launch (POSIX). installer: restore the exec bit on tmc_pc/asset_extractor after extraction, which uses set_attrs=False and would otherwise strip it. ui: home/releases tabs install the host-appropriate asset via select_asset; releases card shows macOS size; settings "Open Folder" uses open/xdg-open instead of the Windows-only os.startfile.
