Research direction

Search the explorer connection instructions for the rust-ceramic Linux tarball URL shown in the issue. Replace the old releases/download/latest pattern with the releases/latest/download form, then verify the documented asset path matches the expected URL and no duplicate outdated pattern remains.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Summary

The SDK explorer connection instructions still use the old releases/download/latest URL for the Linux Ceramic One tarball:

https://github.com/ceramicnetwork/rust-ceramic/releases/download/latest/ceramic-one_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz

That path downloads the GitHub error response instead of the release asset because latest is not a real tag in that URL format. This is the same URL pattern described in #400.

Expected

Use GitHub's latest-release redirect URL:

https://github.com/ceramicnetwork/rust-ceramic/releases/latest/download/ceramic-one_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz

Impact

Users following the explorer's connect instructions can download an invalid archive and then hit tar: Error opening archive: Unrecognized archive format.
