Standalone binary removed from all v1.0.X linuxmusl-x64 release tarballs

[100-a1]

Describe the bug

We have encountered a critical breaking change regarding the linuxmusl-x64 release assets. Previously, downloading the tarball for version v1.0.70 (and other previous versions) provided a precompiled standalone binary suitable for Alpine Linux environments.

Upon investigation, we have checked all versions in the 1.0.X range and discovered that the binary is now missing across all of them. Archives that previously contained the executable have seemingly been altered retroactively, and they now extract into a package folder structure missing the standalone binary.

Because this change affects older, previously functional releases retroactively, it has broken existing deployments. Was this a deliberate architectural change to the legacy CLI packaging, or is it an unexpected regression in the release asset pipeline? Any guidance on how to obtain the musl binary moving forward would be highly appreciated.

No response

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. Download the asset for v1.0.70 (or any older 1.0.X release):

   wget [https://github.com/github/copilot-cli/releases/download/v1.0.70/github-copilot-1.0.70-linuxmusl-x64.tgz](https://github.com/github/copilot-cli/releases/download/v1.0.70/github-copilot-1.0.70-linuxmusl-x64.tgz)
   

2. Extract the archive:

tar -xzvf github-copilot-1.0.70-linuxmusl-x64.tgz

3. Check the contents: The expected standalone binary is missing from the extracted folder structure. Repeating this for other 1.0.X tags yields the same result.

Expected behavior

Downloading and extracting github-copilot-1.0.X-linuxmusl-x64.tgz assets should yield the compiled executable binary for musl-based systems (Alpine Linux), allowing it to be executed directly in CI/CD pipelines, Docker containers, or local environments.

Additional context

• Target OS: Alpine Linux (or any musl-based distribution)
• Affected Versions: All 1.0.X releases (e.g., v1.0.70, etc.)

Closing this issue as it was entirely a mistake on my end. I accidentally downloaded and inspected the source code tarball instead of the precompiled binary release asset. The binary is in place and working as expected. Apologies for the confusion!
