/update — Framework Updates

Check for new PM-Kit releases and safely apply framework updates without touching your notes or config.

Usage

/update           # Check + apply if available
/update --check   # Check only, no download
/update --dry-run # Preview what would change without applying

What This Skill Does

1. Check Current Version

Read the local VERSION file to determine the installed version.

cat VERSION

If VERSION doesn't exist, tell the user to run ./scripts/setup.sh first.

2. Check Latest Release

Query the GitHub API for the latest release:

# Detect repo from git remote, fallback to kv0906/pm-kit
REPO_SLUG="kv0906/pm-kit"
REMOTE_URL="$(git remote get-url origin 2>/dev/null || true)"
if [ -n "$REMOTE_URL" ]; then
  REPO_SLUG="$(echo "$REMOTE_URL" | sed -E 's#.*[:/]([^/]+/[^/.]+)(\.git)?$#\1#')"
fi

curl -sS "https://api.github.com/repos/${REPO_SLUG}/releases/latest"

3. Compare Versions

• If local version matches latest: report "You're on the latest version (vX.Y.Z)"
• If update available: show the version diff and changelog excerpt

4. Apply Update (if user confirms)

Run the update script, passing through any flags the user provided:

# If user ran /update --check:
./scripts/update.sh --check

# If user ran /update --dry-run:
./scripts/update.sh --dry-run

# If user ran /update (no flags):
./scripts/update.sh

The script will:

• Back up current framework files to _archive/_updates/{date}/
• Download and extract the latest release
• Overwrite framework files (skills, templates, scripts, docs)
• Skip hybrid files (_core/config.yaml, .gitignore) — shows diff instead
• Never touch user content (notes, meetings, etc.)
• Update the VERSION file

5. Post-Update Summary

After the script completes, summarize:

• Files updated and files skipped
• Backup location
• Any hybrid files that need manual merge
• Remind user to run /push to commit changes
