Downgrading from Node.js 22.x to 20.x in the release workflow could cause inconsistencies if the codebase relies on Node.js 22 features. Ensure all Node.js 22-specific features have been removed or that this downgrade is intentional and documented.

Suggested change

	node-version: '20.x'
	node-version: '22.x'

The platform change from 'linux-x64' to 'darwin-arm64' and node version from 'v22.21.1' to 'v22.17.1' in the README suggests this was modified on a specific developer's machine. Documentation examples should use consistent, generic platform information or be regenerated in CI to avoid confusion.

Suggested change

	@sourceloop/cli/12.2.0 darwin-arm64 node-v22.17.1
	@sourceloop/cli/12.2.0 <platform> node-<version>
