#### Motrix 2.0.0-beta.15

Motrix 2.0.0-beta.15 is the next Motrix Turbo beta intended for public
distribution after every protected release gate passes. It fixes the native
container runtime-smoke compatibility failure found during beta.14 without
moving or reusing the immutable `v2.0.0-beta.14` tag.

The [beta.14 historical record](https://github.com/agalwood/Motrix/blob/v2.0.0-beta.15/docs/release-notes/2.0.0-beta.14.md)
documents the successful GitHub prerelease and R2 update-feed publication, the
two successful native container builds, and the fail-closed container result.

##### Native container smoke compatibility recovery

- Builds `linux/amd64` on `ubuntu-22.04` and `linux/arm64` on
  `ubuntu-22.04-arm`. Each job verifies the GitHub-hosted Linux runner and its
  native architecture before Buildx starts. The container release path does
  not install or invoke QEMU.
- Each native smoke explicitly pulls its staged digest with the required
  platform, then inspects the selected local image using the Docker CLI syntax
  supported by both GitHub runner images. It still fails closed unless the
  inspected image architecture exactly matches the matrix platform, and every
  runtime container remains platform-pinned.
- Pushes each successful platform only by its untagged, content-addressed OCI
  digest to Docker Hub and GHCR. A single architecture never receives the
  public version tag and cannot become the official release on its own.
- Anonymously pulls the exact staged digest from both registries and runs the
  full Server runtime smoke on its native runner. Immutable platform metadata
  can be uploaded only after both registry smokes succeed.
- Binds each platform record to the exact version, source commit, workflow run
  and attempt, native runner identity, raw OCI index hash, image manifest,
  attestation manifest, provenance, and SPDX SBOM.
- Allows one finalize job to proceed only after the complete amd64/arm64 build
  set succeeds. It rejects missing, duplicate, unexpected, cross-wired, shared,
  or future-attempt digests before creating either versioned index.
- Rechecks both immutable version tags immediately before finalization. A clean
  run creates both indexes from the verified platform digests; a rerun resumes
  an identical complete result or repairs one missing registry from the
  verified existing index. Any conflicting immutable tag fails closed.
- Requires Docker Hub and GHCR to expose the same final index digest, platform
  manifests, and attestation manifests. It validates max-level BuildKit
  provenance, the exact source revision and builder run, and a non-empty SPDX
  SBOM for both architectures before signing.
- Signs each final index digest with the exact protected tag-workflow identity,
  verifies both signatures anonymously, and then runs the full public runtime
  smoke on native amd64 and arm64 runners against both registries.
- Stable floating aliases are handled by the final recovery-safe job only after
  every build, index, signature, provenance, SBOM, anonymous pull, and runtime
  gate succeeds. Beta releases publish only their immutable version tag, so
  beta.15 does not update `latest`, `stable`, or another stable alias.

The GitHub prerelease, R2 update feed, container registries, and Snap Store
remain independently gated publication channels. Their individual safety and
recovery rules are strict, but this release does not claim cross-channel
atomicity.

##### Snap beta policy

Snap is not part of the beta.15 distribution. Protected prerelease Snap runs
stop after source validation, so they do not build Snap artifacts, upload Store
revisions, or change `latest/edge`. Stable Snap publication retains its
complete two-architecture verification and protected Store gates.
