ratchet:update

What problem does it solve?

Detects and automates updating an existing Ratchet installation so users avoid manual cloning, uninstalling, and reinstalling while ensuring slash commands, runtime scripts, agent definitions, and hooks are refreshed.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Installation detection and scope selection for global and project-local installations, with a prompt if both are present.
• Multiple update methods: recommends and runs Nix flake updates, performs git clone plus install.sh, or uses a local source path with environment-variable hints.
• Verification and reporting that counts installed commands, confirms preservation of project data, and instructs the user to restart the session.
• Use case: keep developer tooling and Claude Code slash commands synchronized across machines and projects after upstream changes.

Quick Start

Run the ratchet:update skill and follow prompts to detect installation scope, choose the update method, and perform the uninstall and reinstall sequence.
