Problem Statement

WinGet is the package manager for Windows. The issue https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/11571 & comments on the issue https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/14902 suggest that folks are interested in using WinGet to install Claude Code on Windows. However, the releases on WinGet repository are managed by the community and can be delayed. It would be nice to have a CI / CD workflow to automatically submit PRs to WinGet community repository once a release is made on GitHub. One can use the official tool WinGet-Create to achieve this.

Proposed Solution

Create a GitHub action workflow similar to the repositories mentioned in Additional Context section below. The workflow will run on release > publish event, and submit a PR automatically to the WinGet community repository.

Alternative Solutions

Submit PRs manually or wait for community to update

Priority

Low - Nice to have
