Research direction

Start by inspecting the extension's build and release configuration and comparing its existing architecture targets with the requested illumos-amd64 target. Verify how binaries are packaged and made available for installation. Done means an illumos-amd64 binary is built and published through the extension's normal release process.

Description

feature request topic: cli - general

This extension does not support the illumos-amd64 architecture. I tried to install it on a illumos-amd64 machine, and it failed due to the lack of an available binary. Would you be able to update the extension's build and release process to include the relevant binary? For more details, see https://docs.github.com/en/github-cli/github-cli/creating-github-cli-extensions.
