chore(distribution): submit RIGStats to FossHub

[dvalfrid]

Goal

Register RIGStats on FossHub and keep the listing up to date with every new release.

Why FossHub

FossHub focuses on free/open-source software, has fast CDN downloads, and is well indexed by Google. Unlike Softpedia and MajorGeeks, FossHub hosts the file themselves — which means:

• The download link on FossHub is stable and never stale (always points to the latest uploaded file)
• You must upload the installer manually via their developer portal on each release
• No direct link to GitHub is needed

One-time submission

• Create an account at https://www.fosshub.com
• Go to Developer Portal → Submit a project
• Fill in:
  • Project Name: RIGStats
  • Project URL (source): https://github.com/dvalfrid/rigstats
  • Category: System Tools / Hardware Monitors
  • License: MIT (verify against the LICENSE file in the repo root)
  • Description: (see below)
  • Upload: RIGStats_1.35.1_x64-setup.exe from the latest GitHub Release
• Wait for approval from the FossHub team
• Save the URL to the RIGStats page on FossHub in a comment here

Note: Verify that a LICENSE file exists in the repo root before submitting — FossHub checks that the project is genuinely open source.

Description text

RIGStats is a lightweight, open-source hardware monitoring dashboard for Windows.
It displays real-time telemetry for your entire rig — CPU, GPU, RAM, storage,
network and system power — in a clean, always-visible overlay.

Features include CPU load/temperature/frequency with per-core bars, GPU load/VRAM/
temperature/fan speed, RAM usage, disk activity and free space per drive, network
upload/download with WAN ping, and a System Power panel with CPU/GPU breakdown.

Display modes: portrait and landscape profiles sized for 1080p–4K monitors,
desktop wallpaper mode (renders behind all windows via WorkerW), floating overlay,
and Fill Screen for dedicated secondary monitors. Built-in auto-updater included.

Sensor data is read via a bundled Windows service powered by LibreHardwareMonitor.
Free and open source. Requires Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit).

Per release — update FossHub

FossHub hosts the file — you must upload the new installer manually:

• Download RIGStats_{version}_x64-setup.exe from https://github.com/dvalfrid/rigstats/releases/latest
• Log in to the FossHub Developer Portal
• Go to the RIGStats project → Add new release
• Upload the installer and enter the version number + release notes
• Publish — the FossHub download link updates immediately

FossHub also has an API (https://api.fosshub.com) for uploads. If you want to fully automate this step: get an API key via the Developer Portal and add a step in release.yml that POSTs the installer to FossHub after the GitHub release is published. Do not add this without testing the API flow manually first.

Automation (future improvement — partially feasible)

FossHub is the only one of the three directories with an upload API. Potential flow in release.yml (new step, do not touch existing steps):

- name: Upload to FossHub
  if: ${{ success() }}
  shell: pwsh
  env:
    FOSSHUB_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.FOSSHUB_API_KEY }}
  run: |
    $version  = ($env:RELEASE_TAG -replace '^v', '')
    $exePath  = (Get-ChildItem "target\release\RIGStats_*_x64-setup.exe" | Select-Object -First 1).FullName
    # POST to FossHub API — implement once API key is available

For Softpedia and MajorGeeks (no API): see issues #143/#144 — a separate notify-directories.yml that creates a release checklist issue with pre-filled version and direct download URL covers the need without touching existing workflows.
