Add stable/latest version aliases to install-gh-aw.sh and upgrade command#23469
Conversation
- Add resolve_stable_version() function that fetches all releases via the GitHub API and returns the highest release in the previous minor version band (e.g. v0.1.10 when the latest is v0.2.2) - Change default version alias from 'latest' to 'stable' - Stable resolution falls back to 'latest' when no previous minor band exists or contains no releases - Supports jq for parsing and falls back to grep/sed for portability - Update test script: rename Test 11, add Test 12 with inline algorithm tests covering standard, fallback, and highest-patch-selection cases" Agent-Logs-Url: https://github.com/github/gh-aw/sessions/770feefe-a50d-48b9-b307-3968176421e6 Co-authored-by: pelikhan <4175913+pelikhan@users.noreply.github.com>

@copilot Update the "upgrade" to support this scheme. Upgrade should take optionally the release channel. Default is stable |

@copilot also look at upgrade command |
- Add getStableRelease() to update_check.go that resolves the highest release
in the previous minor version band (e.g. v0.1.10 when latest is v0.2.2)
- Add Prerelease and Draft fields to Release struct for proper filtering
- Update upgradeExtensionIfOutdated to accept a channel parameter ('stable'
or 'latest'), default 'stable'
- Add buildExtensionInstallCommand helper that uses 'gh extension upgrade'
for latest and 'gh extension install --force --pin VERSION' for stable
- Add --channel flag (default 'stable') to upgrade command with validation
- Thread channel through runUpgradeCommand call chain
- Update help text with RELEASE CHANNEL section and --channel examples
- Update tests to pass channel parameter; add test for latest channel

Hey This PR looks well-structured and ready for maintainer review. Here's a quick summary of the checklist:
Verdict: 🟢 Aligned — the PR aligns with the project's guidelines and quality standards. Nice to see inline algorithm tests (Test 12b) covering the edge cases (no previous minor band, empty band, highest-patch selection). Once the draft is marked ready, this should be in good shape for review.
