+# YTSage CI/CD Workflow
+
+This repository uses GitHub Actions to automatically build and release YTSage for Windows when version tags are pushed.
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Trigger
+The workflow is triggered when you push a git tag that starts with `v` (e.g., `v4.8.0`, `v4.9.1`).
+
+### Build Process
+1. **Setup**: Uses Python 3.12.10 on Windows
+2. **Builds**: Creates both Standard and FFmpeg versions
+3. **Packages**: Generates MSI installers and ZIP portable versions
+4. **Release**: Creates a draft GitHub release with all artifacts
+
+## Usage
+
+### Creating a Release
+
+1. **Update version** in your source code if needed
+2. **Commit your changes**:
+   ```bash
+   git add .
+   git commit -m "Release v4.8.0"
+   ```
+
+3. **Create and push a tag**:
+   ```bash
+   git tag v4.8.0
+   git push origin v4.8.0
+   ```
+
+4. **Watch the action**: Go to Actions tab in GitHub to monitor progress
+
+5. **Review draft release**: Once complete, check the Releases section for the draft
+
+### Release Artifacts
+
+The workflow creates the following files:
+
+- `YTSage-v<version>.msi` - Standard Windows installer
+- `YTSage-v<version>.zip` - Standard portable version
+- `YTSage-v<version>-ffmpeg.msi` - FFmpeg bundle installer
+- `YTSage-v<version>-ffmpeg.zip` - FFmpeg bundle portable
+
+### Release Notes
+
+Automatic release notes are generated including:
+- Download links and descriptions
+- Installation instructions
+- System requirements
+- Feature highlights
+
+## Workflow Features
+
+### Automatic Version Detection
+- Extracts version from git tag (removes 'v' prefix)
+- Updates setup.py files with correct version
+- Names all artifacts consistently
+
+### Caching
+- Python dependencies are cached to speed up builds
+- Virtual environment is cached between runs
+
+### Error Handling
+- Comprehensive error checking at each step
+- Detailed logging for troubleshooting
+- Artifact verification before upload
+
+### Security
+- Uses official GitHub Actions
+- No external dependencies
+- Secure token handling
+
+## Manual Intervention
+
+### After Workflow Completion
+1. **Review the draft release** in GitHub
+2. **Test the artifacts** if needed
+3. **Edit release notes** if desired
+4. **Publish the release** when ready
+
+### Troubleshooting
+If the workflow fails:
+1. Check the Actions logs for error details
+2. Ensure all required files are present
+3. Verify the tag format is correct (`v*`)
+4. Check that dependencies are properly listed
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Modifying the Workflow
+The workflow file is located at `.github/workflows/build-windows.yml`.
+
+Key configuration options:
+- `PYTHON_VERSION`: Python version to use
+- Artifact naming patterns
+- Release note templates
+
+### Adding New Build Types
+To add new build configurations:
+1. Create new setup-*.py files
+2. Add build steps to the workflow
+3. Update artifact collection logic
+
+## Notes
+
+- The workflow only runs on Windows
+- Requires Python 3.12.10 for MSI compatibility
+- All builds use cx_Freeze for packaging
+- FFmpeg binaries are expected in standard locations
+- Draft releases allow for review before publication
+
+## Example Tag Commands
+
+```bash
+# For a new release
+git tag v4.8.0
+git push origin v4.8.0
+
+# For a patch release
+git tag v4.8.1
+git push origin v4.8.1
+
+# To delete a tag (if needed)
+git tag -d v4.8.0
+git push origin :refs/tags/v4.8.0
+```
