+## Automated Releases via Gitea Actions
+
+The repository includes a automated Gitea workflow at [`.gitea/workflows/release.yml`](.gitea/workflows/release.yml) and a local packaging utility [`package_dist.py`](package_dist.py).
+
+### How to Trigger a Release
+1. Ensure your Gitea repository has `TAG_TOKEN` configured under **Repository Settings $\rightarrow$ Actions $\rightarrow$ Secrets**.
+2. Tag a release version and push it:
+   ```bash
+   git tag v1.0.0
+   git push origin v1.0.0
+   ```
+3. Gitea Actions will automatically:
+   - Run `package_dist.py` to package server, Windows client, and Linux client into `dist/`.
+   - Compute SHA-256 checksums (`SHA256SUMS.txt`).
+   - Use `gitea-release-action` to publish the release with all attachments.
