cmdop update

Check for an update without installing it:

cmdop update check

Run the guided update flow:

cmdop update

If an update has already been staged, apply it with:

cmdop update apply

Cmdop tells you when the final install step needs elevated permissions. Start the download as your normal user so the staged update remains in that user’s cache.

Background checks

cmdop update schedule cmdop update schedule --enable --interval 1h cmdop update schedule --interval 30m cmdop update schedule --disable
FlagPurpose
--enable / --disableTurn background update checking on or off.
--interval <duration>Check interval, e.g. 1h or 30m.
--auto-applyApply an update automatically when one is found.
--notify-onlyNotify about updates without applying them.

Run cmdop update schedule with no flags to print the current settings. Choose --notify-only on a machine where an update must land inside a change window rather than whenever one appears.

Confirm the result with cmdop version.

Update safely

Check first on machines that are serving active work. Downloading an update is safe as a normal user, but applying it can restart or replace the installed binary. On servers, prefer --notify-only or a deliberate change window unless you have tested --auto-apply for that environment.

After applying an update, run cmdop status to confirm the agent is still running and connected. If shell completion looks stale, regenerate it from the updated binary.
