description: Update GSD to latest version with changelog display
---

<objective>
Check for GSD updates, install if available, and display what changed.

Provides a better update experience than raw `npx get-shit-done-cc` by showing version diff and changelog entries.
</objective>

<process>

<step name="get_installed_version">
Read installed version:

```bash
cat /home/payload/payload-cms/.claude/get-shit-done/VERSION 2>/dev/null
```

**If VERSION file missing:**
```
## GSD Update

**Installed version:** Unknown

Your installation doesn't include version tracking.

Running fresh install...
```

Proceed to install step (treat as version 0.0.0 for comparison).
</step>

<step name="check_latest_version">
Check npm for latest version:

```bash
npm view get-shit-done-cc version 2>/dev/null
```

**If npm check fails:**
```
Couldn't check for updates (offline or npm unavailable).

To update manually: `npx get-shit-done-cc --global`
```

STOP here if npm unavailable.
</step>

<step name="compare_versions">
Compare installed vs latest:

**If installed == latest:**
```
## GSD Update

**Installed:** X.Y.Z
**Latest:** X.Y.Z

You're already on the latest version.
```

STOP here if already up to date.

**If installed > latest:**
```
## GSD Update

**Installed:** X.Y.Z
**Latest:** A.B.C

You're ahead of the latest release (development version?).
```

STOP here if ahead.
</step>

<step name="show_changes_and_confirm">
**If update available**, fetch and show what's new BEFORE updating:

1. Fetch changelog (same as fetch_changelog step)
2. Extract entries between installed and latest versions
3. Display preview and ask for confirmation:

```
## GSD Update Available

**Installed:** 1.5.10
**Latest:** 1.5.15

### What's New
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

## [1.5.15] - 2026-01-20

- Feature X

## [1.5.14] - 2026-01-18

### Fixed
- Bug fix Y

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

⚠️  **Note:** The installer performs a clean install of GSD folders:
- `/home/payload/payload-cms/.claude/commands/gsd/` will be wiped and replaced
- `/home/payload/payload-cms/.claude/get-shit-done/` will be wiped and replaced
- `/home/payload/payload-cms/.claude/agents/gsd-*` files will be replaced

Your custom files in other locations are preserved:
- Custom commands in `/home/payload/payload-cms/.claude/commands/your-stuff/` ✓
- Custom agents not prefixed with `gsd-` ✓
- Custom hooks ✓
- Your CLAUDE.md files ✓

If you've modified any GSD files directly, back them up first.
```

Use AskUserQuestion:
- Question: "Proceed with update?"
- Options:
  - "Yes, update now"
  - "No, cancel"

**If user cancels:** STOP here.
</step>

<step name="run_update">
Run the update:

```bash
npx get-shit-done-cc --global
```

Capture output. If install fails, show error and STOP.

Clear the update cache so statusline indicator disappears:

```bash
rm -f /home/payload/payload-cms/.claude/cache/gsd-update-check.json
```
</step>

<step name="display_result">
Format completion message (changelog was already shown in confirmation step):

```
╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║  GSD Updated: v1.5.10 → v1.5.15                           ║
╚═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝

⚠️  Restart Claude Code to pick up the new commands.
