BRAT install fails: No manifest.json in latest release

Hi 👋

I'm trying to install this plugin via BRAT in Obsidian using the repository:

hardbyte/obsidian-llm-plugin

However, BRAT returns the following error:

This does not seem to be an Obsidian plugin, as there is no manifest.json file.
A manifest.json file does not exist in the latest release of the repository. This plugin cannot be installed.

From what I understand, Obsidian requires the release package to contain:

• manifest.json
• main.js
• styles.css (optional)

It appears that the latest GitHub release does not include a compiled plugin bundle with manifest.json.

Could you please clarify:

• Is this repository intended to be installed directly via BRAT?
• If so, should there be a packaged release artifact containing the required files?
• Or does the plugin need to be built locally before installation?

Thanks in advance!

Oh thanks for pointing that out. I've now uploaded those files to the v1.0.0 release, so BRAT installation should work now. I've also added a release workflow so future releases will include these automatically.

Thanks! It's working fine now!
