sootsim upgrade
sootsim upgrade
One command to get current. Installs + activates the latest engine runtime on your channel first — or the pinned version when sootsim runtime pin is set — then checks the npm registry for a newer sootsim CLI and self-updates the global install using the package manager that installed it (bun/pnpm/npm; npx-cache runs are told to run npx sootsim@latest instead). The CLI half runs last because it replaces the running process’s own files. Safe to run anytime; each half is skipped when already up to date. The CLI and engine runtime are versioned independently, which is a frequent source of “I ran upgrade but the version did not change” confusion, so this command checks both. The background daemon also auto-updates the runtime hourly and the next CLI run prints a one-line “engine upgraded” notice.
