Install apps from GitHub releases and keep them updated

Software published as GitHub releases can now be installed with sudo rime install --allow-unsigned github:OWNER/REPO, and rime update keeps it on the latest release. The packages are not signed, so Rime asks you to accept the repository once and lists it in rime pkg list from then on.

Published to every image tag (apex, daily, edge, gaming-mesa, gaming-nvidia, rime). All of them are the edge channel today. This page explains the release; it is never consulted by an update. What a machine installs is decided by the registry and the image signature (see Security). Machine-readable: 2026.10.13.json.

If something is wrong

Go back to the image you were running before this one. It becomes the default at the next boot; your files and settings stay as they are.

sudo rime rollback && sudo systemctl reboot

On an APEX-named system the command is apex. You can also pick the previous entry in the boot menu. More in Rolling back and Recovery.
