What probably matters to youSection of the release
What

The /install-github-app wizard now has visible changes:

  • The API key and repository steps move through a filtered list of choices (use existing, sign in, or create new).
  • The "Install GitHub App" subtitle headers and the extra blank space below them are gone.
  • The general Escape-to-cancel key now works only during the browser sign-in (OAuth) step.
  • Creating the GitHub Actions workflow is guarded so it cannot run twice, for example after a double press of Enter.
Why

Pressing confirm twice no longer creates the workflow twice. Escape behaves differently on steps other than sign-in, so do not count on it to leave the wizard from those steps.
