Pre-release builds
Miton is currently in active pre-release (Phase 1.7 in progress). The pre-release build includes the chat, the model layer, the four-lens surface system, sub-agents, skills, the free multi-provider gateway, and the local-first guarantees.
Pre-release builds are released as tagged binaries on the GitHub releases page. The team signs and notarises (where applicable) each build.
