Research direction

Start with the linked GitHub Actions job logs and compare the failing run with release PR #1611 and the v1.6.0 tag and GitHub release. Identify why the job reports an error despite publishing the expected assets, then verify that a subsequent release workflow completes successfully without changing the assets.
