Verifying intregrity

You can verify the integrity of all the BassBoom release assets using the GitHub Attestations feature.

GitHub have recently introduced a new feature that allows you to verify a binary artifact that a workflow has generated, called the Attestations. To verify your download, once you've downloaded one of the BassBoom zip files, follow these steps:

1. Install GH CLI 2.49.0 or higher.

2. Sign in to your GitHub account using gh auth login.

3. Run this command: gh attestation verify <version>-cli.zip --owner Aptivi, where <version> is a version of Nitrocid that you've downloaded.

If everything is OK, you should see the below message, such as one for 0.1.3:

If you've seen this error message:
