SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Propagate upstream template updates into the downstream project to maintain parity with the latest patterns and practices.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sync shared skills, references, and tooling from the upstream template while preserving project-specific overrides.
  • Bootstrap a local sync workflow using scripts/sync-upstream.sh and promote.sh, enabling predictable downstream updates.
  • Use --dry-run to preview changes before applying them.

Quick Start

Run the dry-run to preview changes, then run the full sync to pull updates from the upstream template.

Frequently Asked Questions about sync

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I sync upstream template updates into my downstream project?▼

To sync upstream template updates, run the local bootstrap script (scripts/sync-upstream.sh) to propagate shared skills, references, and tooling while preserving project-specific overrides in your downstream project.

Can I preview upstream template changes before applying them to my project?▼

Yes, you can preview upstream template changes by running the sync process with the --dry-run option, allowing you to review all downstream updates before committing them to your project.

How does upstream sync handle project-specific overrides during version control updates?▼

Upstream sync handles project-specific overrides by preserving them during propagation, ensuring your local customizations remain intact while shared skills, references, and tooling receive the latest template updates.

Do I need a local bootstrap script to automate downstream template updates?▼

Yes, you need a local bootstrap script (scripts/sync-upstream.sh) to automate predictable downstream updates, track sync status in .upstream-sync.json, and use options like --all for comprehensive template propagation.

What's the best way to sync all shared skills and tooling from an upstream template?▼

The best way to sync all shared skills and tooling is by using the --all option with your sync-upstream.sh script, ensuring comprehensive propagation of upstream updates into your downstream project.
