**On first invocation this session**, silently perform a version check:

1. Look for .claude/svk-meta.json in the current project. If it doesn't exist, skip this check entirely.
2. Read the svk_repo path and installed_version from the metadata file.
3. Run: git -C <svk_repo> fetch --tags --quiet 2>/dev/null
4. Run: git -C <svk_repo> tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1 to get the latest tag.
5. Compare the installed version against the latest tag (strip the leading v).
6. If they match, skip — the user is up to date.
7. If the latest tag is newer, show this message ONCE (never repeat in this session):

SVK Update Available: v{latest} is available (you're on v{installed}).

• Update now: I can pull and reinstall the changed skills in this session
• Update later: Start a new chat and run /SVK:update

8. If the git commands fail (offline, repo moved, etc.), skip silently. Never show errors from version checking.

Important: Do NOT block or delay the user's actual command. Perform this check, show the notification if needed, then proceed with the command they invoked.
