Generated Windows apps now expose Help → View on GitHub, Submit an issue… and Community support…, matching gclo and the AppKit samples. Links follow the selected owner/repository and use the Windows default browser with generic failure reporting. Existing About, activity and update commands remain available.

Repository setup enables Discussions and read-only validation rejects disabled Discussions, so the generated community-support link has a configured destination. This change is based on current main and excludes unrelated unpublished onboarding changes.

Validation: full Release x64 build and formatting pass; 20 core tests pass with 100% measured line coverage. Both CLI-enabled and CLI-disabled generated apps build with zero warnings/errors; generated core tests pass20/20 in each, plus14/14 CLI tests. Owner-specific issue/support URL assertions pass. Current-main setup tests pass23/23; all pinned analyzer rules on both changed scripts and normal signed/DCO hooks pass. Live template Discussions is enabled. Exact e4c4a50 hosted native8/8, generated-template and installed-update jobs pass in CI38177007272. Scripts exposed the pinned analyzer Stack empty crash; signed2688e3f runs casing and remaining rules separately, preserving every configured rule. All rules pass locally on every build script; workflow security/syntax and hooks pass. Exact-head verification of that tooling correction, screenshots and current-head human review remain pending.

Refs #3. Related AppKit PR https://github.com/KofTwentyTwo/AppKit/pull/29 and MarkdownViewr issue https://github.com/KofTwentyTwo/MarkdownViewr.Windows/issues/20.
