What problem does it solve?
Manually updating gstack across different install configurations (global git, vendored local copies, team mode environments) is time-consuming and error-prone, especially when managing multiple project-specific copies or handling repeated upgrade prompts.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Multi-Install Type Support: Automatically detects whether gstack is installed via global git, vendored local copy, or team mode, and runs the correct upgrade path for each configuration.
- Smart Upgrade Workflow: Handles auto-upgrade toggles, snoozed reminders with escalating backoff, and user prompts to avoid disrupting active work.
- Vendored Copy Sync: Automatically updates local vendored gstack copies to match the global version, or removes stale copies when team mode is active to enforce a single source of truth.
- Use Case: If you maintain gstack in 5 different project repositories with vendored copies, this skill will sync all local copies to the latest global version in one go, eliminating manual copy-paste and version mismatch errors.
Quick Start
Invoke the gstack-upgrade skill when you want to update your gstack installation to the latest version, and it will automatically handle detecting your install type, running the upgrade, syncing any local vendored copies, and showing you a summary of new features in the updated version.
