The prebuilt *-linux-gnu CLI is linked on the release runner (ubuntu-22.04, glibc 2.35) and a newer glibc runs older binaries but not the reverse, so on an older distribution it exits with "libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found" before reaching main(). Releases now also carry a statically linked musl archive per architecture, which depends on no system libc; this costs one extra cargo build and no new tooling, since every crate in the CLI's tree is pure Rust with no -sys dependency. install.sh reads the host's glibc and picks between the two, falling back to the gnu archive only on an HTTP error (an older release has no musl asset) and never on a transport failure, which would otherwise misreport a flaky network as a missing asset. A binary that cannot start now names the remedy and exits non-zero instead of reporting success. CI builds x86_64 musl and cross-checks aarch64 so the first musl link never happens on a tag, and the publish job fails if any of the eight CLI archives is absent rather than shipping a release with a hole in it. The new check-glibc-floor skill keeps the floor consistent across the workflow, the installer, the docs and the download labels, and is part of pre-release-check. The desktop app is unaffected and keeps the glibc 2.35 floor: it links the distribution's WebKitGTK and so cannot be static.
