Self-Update Skill

Update Tyrion to the latest version from the git repository.

Commands

Check for Updates

Check if updates are available without applying them:

./scripts/self-update.sh --check

Returns:

• Current version (git commit)
• Remote version
• List of new commits if updates available

Update

Pull the latest changes and rebuild:

./scripts/self-update.sh

This will:

1. Stash any local changes
2. Pull latest from the configured branch
3. Install new dependencies if package.json changed
4. Rebuild the project

Update and Restart

Update and automatically restart the service:

./scripts/self-update.sh --restart

The restart is handled gracefully:

1. Spawns a background process
2. Waits for the current process to exit
3. Starts the new version

Force Update

Force a pull even if already up to date:

./scripts/self-update.sh --force

Specify Branch

Update from a specific branch:

./scripts/self-update.sh --branch develop

Safety Notes

1. Local changes are preserved - automatically stashed before update
2. Graceful restart - current request completes before restart
3. Rollback - if update fails, stashed changes can be restored with git stash pop

Logs

Update logs are written to:

~/.casterly/logs/update.log

When to Update

Update when:

• User asks to update or check for updates
• User reports a bug that might be fixed
• User asks about new features

Always ask before restarting - the user might be in the middle of something.

Example Interactions

User: "Are there any updates available?" → Run check_for_updates()

User: "Update yourself" → Run update_tyrion(restart=false), then ask if they want to restart

User: "Update and restart" → Run update_tyrion(restart=true)

User: "Something's broken, can you restart?" → Run restart_tyrion(confirm=true)
