Typically a user probably wants the latest release/build
Probably could be provided as a custom URL scheme like "github://"
For both, the last part of the URL would be a file name or glob that uniquely identifies the file within the release/build. If multiple match then it's an error
Middle part of URL would be org/repo for GitHub or build name for Jenkins
Not sure where/how to accept the release name/build number and/or allow for indication of "latest"

Some examples of repositories and ci servers this would apply to are: https://github.com/TechnicJelle/BlueMapOfflinePlayerMarkers/releases/tag/v2.9 https://github.com/BlueMap-Minecraft/BlueMap/releases/tag/v5.2 https://github.com/852DuartePls/PlayTime/releases/tag/3.7 https://ci.extendedclip.com/job/PlaceholderAPI/lastBuild/ https://ci.ender.zone/job/EssentialsX

Side note: be sure to use Modrinth (and/or CurseForge) where you can such as

https://modrinth.com/plugin/essentialsx

https://modrinth.com/plugin/bluemap

Using https://docker-minecraft-server.readthedocs.io/en/latest/mods-and-plugins/modrinth/

The issue with using modrinth pages over ci servers. For example EssentialsX doesn't have any 1.21 builds posted to their public modrinth page yet, and it is only available on the ci server. I also mainly just provided bluemap as an example of a repo that had multiple different loaders distributed under a single release.
