• Scripts/make_appcast.sh: generates Sparkle appcast and embeds HTML release notes.
• Scripts/changelog-to-html.sh: converts the per-version changelog section to HTML for Sparkle.

Bundle contents

• CodexBarWidget.appex bundled with app-group entitlements.
• CodexBarCLI copied to CodexBar.app/Contents/Helpers/ for symlinking.
