The manual install commands ask GitHub which release is the latest (the /releases/latest redirect) instead of naming a version, so a release no longer needs a README PR afterwards. The lookup uses curl alone, because the checksum path is for people without gh. Setting VERSION by hand still works for a specific tag.

I ran the snippet in zsh and bash, as far as the checksum check: both resolved v0.17.0 and verified the archive. The release example in the Releasing section is now a fixed v1.2.3.
