+## Automatic release updates
+
+The release workflow submits a WinGet update after publishing the GitHub
+Release assets. It uses Microsoft's WingetCreate tool to open a pull request in
+`microsoft/winget-pkgs`; Microsoft validation and review still apply.
+
+Configure an Actions repository secret named `WINGET_CREATE_GITHUB_TOKEN`
+before publishing a release. The secret must contain a GitHub personal access
+token (classic) with the `public_repo` scope. WingetCreate does not support
+fine-grained personal access tokens.
+
+WingetCreate is pinned and checksum-verified in the release workflow. Update
+both its release URL and expected SHA-256 digest when upgrading the tool.
