compute-sync-plan.mjs, and shows a summary before applying anything. - Safe apply with backups: Backs up modified and deleted files to .vibecode-backup/ (with rotation), applies the sync plan, fixes symlinks, and writes .vc-version and .vc-installed-files snapshots. - Legacy layout migration: Moves old-layout process/ plan, report, and reference artifacts into task folders when a destination can be safely inferred, and reports ambiguous cases for manual review. - Use Case: After being told a new harness version is available, run the update to see exactly which agent, hook, and skill files will change, confirm, and let the tool apply the update while preserving merge-protected files like .claude/settings.json. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run vc-update to check for and apply the latest agent harness updates from the remote kit repository.High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
Run vc-update, which clones the remote kit repository, resolves its manifest, and shows a dry-run diff of files to add, modify, or delete. Type 'apply' to confirm and the update is applied with backups written to .vibecode-backup/.
Set the VC_KIT_SOURCE environment variable to a local path or alternate URL before running the update. The value is used verbatim as the git clone source, enabling offline testing and forks.
No. Files in the manifest's merge list, including .claude/settings.json, are never overwritten when they exist locally. The dry-run shows the diff so you can reconcile changes manually, and a post-update notice lists hooks you may need to add.
Every file scheduled for modification or deletion is backed up to .vibecode-backup/ before applying, and prior backups are rotated to timestamped directories. Deletions also pass a namespace guard, and suspicious large-delete batches trigger a prominent warning.
Version equality makes the file sync a no-op, but the legacy layout migration is not version-gated. If old-layout plan, report, or reference artifacts exist under process/, they are scanned and safely migrated into task folders even when versions match.
The backup step in Part A assumes a POSIX shell and uses /dev/stdin, so it must be skipped or adapted on Windows. Symlink creation may also fall back to real directories, which the post-update check re-syncs from .claude/skills/.
