Version drift occurs when the Layer 1 global tool binary and Layer 2 Claude Code plugin metadata are out of sync. You must coordinate updates across both layers using dotnet tool commands and plugin metadata updates.

Use the server_info command to check current version details. If server_info indicates an update is available or reports a version older than NuGet, proceed with the coordinated dotnet tool update and plugin metadata workflow.

The correct workflow is a two-step process: apply the dotnet tool update or install command for the global tool binary, then update the Claude Code plugin metadata, followed by post-update verification to ensure compatibility.

Do I need to update both the global tool and Claude Code plugin metadata separately?

Yes, you must update both layers separately to prevent version drift. The update process requires coordinating the Layer 1 global tool binary using dotnet tool commands and the Layer 2 Claude Code plugin metadata.
