geni upgrade

geni upgrade

Checks the npm registry for the latest @general-input/cli release and, if you're behind, reinstalls via npm install -g. Already current? It says so and exits.

After an upgrade, run geni skills install so your AI agents pick up the latest bundled skill content.

Check without installing

geni upgrade --check

Prints whether a newer version exists and exits without touching your install. Exits 0 when current, 79 when an upgrade is available — same code the API uses when it refuses a too-old CLI.

Non-npm installs

geni upgrade only rewrites installs it can prove are owned by npm install -g (the running binary resolves inside npm root -g). Anything else — a linked development checkout, a pnpm or volta global — gets instructions to upgrade the way it was installed, and nothing is touched.

Permissions

If your global npm prefix needs elevated permissions, npm's error will say so; retry with:

sudo npm install -g @general-input/cli@latest
