SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the manual guesswork from keeping GSD current by checking for updates, showing what changed, and guiding a safe installation path.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Version Detection: Identifies whether the installed GSD copy is local or global and determines if a newer release is available.
  • Changelog Review: Fetches and displays release notes so users can evaluate impact before updating.
  • Safe Update Flow: Handles confirmation, clean-install warnings, cache clearing, restart reminders, and special maintenance paths like sync and reapply.
  • Use Case: A developer wants to upgrade GSD across multiple runtime roots without losing custom changes, so the Skill checks the version, presents the changelog, updates the install, and then coordinates any follow-up repair steps.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to check for the latest GSD version, show the changelog, and update it only after you approve the install.
