 - Added `bitmovin encoding jobs live <id>` to show live encoding connection details, with JSON output support. Surfaces every assigned stream key (including the per-static-ingest-point keys used by redundant RTMP) and the SRT mode/host/port/path for SRT inputs.
 
   JSON shape note for anyone tracking the unreleased branch: the `--json` output now reports `streamKeys: [{value, ingestPointId, status}]` instead of the singular `streamKey` field that earlier iterations exposed. A `streamKey` alias is still emitted (equal to `streamKeys[0]?.value`) for one-off scripts; redundant RTMP setups should read `streamKeys[]` to get every per-ingest-point key.

+- Tag-pushed `v*` runs now also create a draft GitHub Release with the tarballs, `.exe`, and signed `.pkg` files attached as individual downloadable assets, plus a `SHA256SUMS` file so users can verify downloads. Release creation is gated on a `ci-passed` job that asserts `ci.yml` (lint, build, tests) succeeded on the tagged commit. Drafts are invisible to non-maintainers; "Publish release" in the Releases UI flips visibility once contents are reviewed.
