SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

gstack users lose time and consistency when upgrades are manual or uncertain, and they miss what functional changes landed between versions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects install type automatically: Determines whether gstack is installed globally or vendored, and upgrades the correct location accordingly.
  • Upgrades safely with recovery: Pulls the latest release via git reset or fresh clone, stashes local changes when applicable, and restores backups if setup fails.
  • Keeps local vendored copies in sync: If a project-specific vendored copy exists, it is updated to match the upgraded primary install.
  • Shows user-facing changes: Reads the CHANGELOG and summarizes the version-to-version deltas into a small, themed list of highlights.
  • Supports manual and controlled behavior: Uses an explicit manual trigger and provides an interactive upgrade decision flow with snooze/backoff or “never ask again” options.

Quick Start

Invoke the skill only when you want it to run by asking: /gstack-upgrade.
