# Helix Boot — tool manifest
#
# Every ISO, portable app and the Ventoy loader itself is described here.
# `helix fetch` resolves the newest upstream release of each enabled entry,
# downloads it, and verifies it before anything touches your USB stick.
#
# Personal tweaks go in `local.toml` (git-ignored), so this file stays clean:
#
# [overrides.hirens]
# enabled = true
#
# [[tool]] # add your own entries with the same schema as below
# name = "my-tool"
# ...
#
# ── Schema ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# name unique id (also the cache folder name)
# title pretty name shown in the Ventoy menu / PE app list
# kind "iso" | "app" | "ventoy" | "file" (copied to `dest` on the stick)
# | "tree" (unpacked with 7-Zip into `dest`, installed once: see portableapps)
# category one of the [[category]] ids below (iso only)
# icon: theme/icons/<name>.png, or your own in byo/icons/<name>.png
# enabled include in fetch/sync (default true)
# source "github" | "sourceforge" | "url" | "local"
# github: repo = "owner/name" (+ optional download_template when the
# release has no files: "https://site/v{version}/file-{version}.iso")

# url: url = "https://..."
# local: path = "relative/to/repo.iso"
# asset list of regexes tried in order against release file names;
# the first regex that matches anything wins
# version optional regex applied to the file name (capture groups joined with -)
# (falls back to the GitHub release tag, then to the fetch date)
# version_pin fixed version string for hand-bumped `url` sources
# extract optional regex: pull a matching member out of a downloaded .zip
# entry (apps) the .exe the PE launcher should start
# platform (apps) "mac": a tool for a working Mac. It goes in Mac/<name>/ instead of
# Apps/, as downloaded (.dmg, .pkg, .zip): an unpacked .app doesn't survive exFAT
# checksum list of strategies, tried in order; the first that produces a
# hash is used. The download is rejected if it doesn't match.
# "github-digest" sha256 GitHub records for each release asset
# { asset = "regex" } another asset in the same GitHub release
# { sibling = "file" } a file next to the download ({name} = file name)

# { sha256 = "hex" } pinned hash
