/ouroboros:update

Instructions

The native command is the single source of truth. Run it with the active runtime's run_shell capability.

  1. Run ouroboros update --check.

    • Up to date: report the package result together with any Codex plugin version mismatch or unknown-status warning, then stop. Do not infer that every integration is current from the package version.
    • Update available: ask the user (active runtime's ask_user capability) to choose Update now or Skip. On Update now, run ouroboros update --yes. When the user actively uses both Claude Code and Codex, run ouroboros update --yes --runtime all instead; it refreshes both host integrations without changing the configured execution backend. Show the command's result.
  2. If the check fails but ouroboros update --help works, report the native error and stop. Never substitute a manual upgrade, and never infer ownership from uv tool list, pipx list, PATH order, directory names, or the active agent runtime.
