Guide for surfacing one relevant Fae capability that the user hasn't set up yet. Warm, specific, one thing at a time.
Deep pipeline diagnostic — every model, system specs, audio config, speaker state. Flags missing or broken components. Use for diagnose, debug, or health check.
Extract training signals from Fae's memory — SFT examples, DPO correction pairs, engagement scores, and interest-weighted sampling.
Set up (or turn off) a cloud brain for harder questions via OpenRouter — privacy-first, plain language. Use when the user wants a bigger or smarter brain or mentions the cloud.
A warm first conversation for someone meeting Fae for the first time — getting to know their name, where they live, and what they care about, showing one thing live, and explaining how to talk to her.

The user is asking you to check for updates or update yourself. Fae uses Sparkle for automatic updates from GitHub Releases.
You have a scheduler_trigger tool that can trigger the check_fae_update task, and you can read version info. But the actual update check and installation is handled natively by Sparkle — you just need to nudge the right mechanism.
Read the app version from the bundle:
I'm currently running Fae v{version}.
You can get the version from the self_config tool with get_settings — it includes the app version.
Use the scheduler_trigger tool to fire check_fae_update. This tells Sparkle to check the appcast feed for a newer version.
Then tell the user:
"I've triggered an update check. If there's a newer version available, you'll see Sparkle's update dialog — it'll ask if you want to download and install it."
Use web_search to search for the latest Fae release:
site:github.com saorsa-labs/fae releasesfetch_url on https://github.com/saorsa-labs/fae/releases/latest to read the release notes.Summarise the highlights conversationally — don't dump raw changelogs.
Sparkle handles the download, verification, and installation. You cannot force-install an update programmatically. Tell them:
"The update dialog should appear shortly. If it doesn't, try Fae > Check for Updates in the menu bar."
