# Auto-Claude Updater

Automatic synchronization of skills and documentation with upstream Auto-Claude releases.

## Overview

This skill provides:
- **Version checking** - Detect new Auto-Claude releases
- **Skill synchronization** - Update local skills with latest docs
- **Changelog parsing** - Extract relevant changes
- **Compatibility checks** - Ensure skill-version alignment

## Quick Commands

### Check for Updates

```bash
# Check if new version available
auto-claude-update --check

# Or using git
cd /path/to/Auto-Claude
git fetch origin
git log main..origin/main --oneline
```

### Update Auto-Claude

```bash
# Update from source
cd /path/to/Auto-Claude
git pull origin main
npm run install:all

# Or download new release
# https://github.com/AndyMik90/Auto-Claude/releases/latest
```

### Sync Skills

```bash
# Run skill update script
cd /path/to/skills-repo
./scripts/sync-auto-claude-skills.sh
```

## Update Workflow

### 1. Check Version

```bash
# Current version
cat /path/to/Auto-Claude/package.json | grep '"version"'

# Latest release
curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/AndyMik90/Auto-Claude/releases/latest | grep '"tag_name"'
```

### 2. Review Changelog

```bash
# View recent changes
cat /path/to/Auto-Claude/CHANGELOG.md | head -100

# Or fetch from GitHub
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AndyMik90/Auto-Claude/main/CHANGELOG.md | head -100
```

### 3. Update Repository

```bash
cd /path/to/Auto-Claude

# Stash local changes
git stash

# Pull latest
git pull origin main

# Reinstall dependencies
npm run install:all

# Restore local changes
git stash pop
```

### 4. Sync Skills

After updating, synchronize skill documentation:

```bash
# Copy latest docs to skills
./scripts/sync-auto-claude-skills.sh

# Or manually update
cp /path/to/Auto-Claude/README.md /path/to/skills/auto-claude-setup/references/
cp /path/to/Auto-Claude/CLAUDE.md /path/to/skills/auto-claude-cli/references/
cp /path/to/Auto-Claude/guides/CLI-USAGE.md /path/to/skills/auto-claude-cli/references/
```

## Automatic Update Script

### sync-auto-claude-skills.sh

```bash
#!/bin/bash
# Auto-Claude Skills Sync Script

AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH="${AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH:-/mnt/c/data/github/external/Auto-Claude}"
SKILLS_PATH="${SKILLS_PATH:-.claude/skills}"

echo "Syncing Auto-Claude skills..."

# Check current version
CURRENT_VERSION=$(cat "$AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH/package.json" | grep '"version"' | sed 's/.*"version": "\(.*\)".*/\1/')
echo "Auto-Claude version: $CURRENT_VERSION"

# Update setup skill references
echo "Updating auto-claude-setup..."
cp "$AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH/README.md" "$SKILLS_PATH/auto-claude-setup/references/"
cp "$AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH/CONTRIBUTING.md" "$SKILLS_PATH/auto-claude-setup/references/"

# Update CLI skill references
echo "Updating auto-claude-cli..."
cp "$AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH/CLAUDE.md" "$SKILLS_PATH/auto-claude-cli/references/"
cp "$AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH/guides/CLI-USAGE.md" "$SKILLS_PATH/auto-claude-cli/references/" 2>/dev/null || true

# Update memory skill references
echo "Updating auto-claude-memory..."
cp "$AUTO_CLAUDE_PATH/apps/backend/.env.example" "$SKILLS_PATH/auto-claude-memory/references/"

# Update version in all skills
echo "Updating version references..."
for skill_dir in "$SKILLS_PATH"/auto-claude-*; do
    if [ -f "$skill_dir/SKILL.md" ]; then
        sed -i "s/auto-claude-version: 2.7.2
    fi
done

echo "Sync complete!"
```

Save to `.claude/skills/auto-claude-updater/scripts/sync-auto-claude-skills.sh` and make executable:

```bash
chmod +x .claude/skills/auto-claude-updater/scripts/sync-auto-claude-skills.sh
```

## Update Detection

```bash
# Compare versions
CURRENT="2.7.0"
LATEST=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/AndyMik90/Auto-Claude/releases/latest | jq -r '.tag_name' | sed 's/v//')

# Major version change = breaking
if [[ "${CURRENT%%.*}" != "${LATEST%%.*}" ]]; then
    echo "BREAKING: Major version change detected!"
fi
```

### Monitor GitHub Releases

```bash
# Watch for new releases
gh release list -R AndyMik90/Auto-Claude --limit 5

# Get release notes
gh release view v2.7.2 -R AndyMik90/Auto-Claude
```
