FAQPage Schema
How do I safely upgrade claude-toolkit without losing my custom configurations?

To safely upgrade claude-toolkit, use a guided update process that performs pre-flight checks, previews versions, and manages configuration drift. It detects customized files in agents, rules, and skills, offering guided conflict resolution paths before applying any changes.

What is toolkit drift management and how does it work during an update?

Toolkit drift management identifies customized project files that diverge from upstream versions during an update. It provides guided resolution paths to review changelogs and reconcile conflicts, ensuring custom configurations are preserved without breaking the upgrade.

How do I preview upstream changes before pulling a new toolkit version?

You can preview upstream changes by running a guided upgrade process that includes a version preview step. This allows you to review suggested changes from the target version or main branch and approve an update plan before any modifications are applied.

Do I need git access to run a toolkit update with validation?

Yes, git access is required to run a toolkit update. The upgrade process uses git to apply changes, perform post-update validation, and create a final summary commit to document modifications and maintain project traceability.

What is the best way to resolve conflicts when updating customized project files?

The best way to resolve update conflicts is through a guided conflict resolution workflow that compares customized drift against the new toolkit version. This structured approach safely reconciles customized files in agents and rules while keeping the toolkit current.
