# TAD Update Command
Update TAD in the current project. This skill delegates exclusively to the shared
updater helper `.tad/scripts/tad-update.sh` — it contains no version comparison,
download, backup, migration, or copy logic of its own.
## Workflow (two-step human confirmation boundary)
1. Run the read-only check first:
```bash
bash .tad/scripts/tad-update.sh --check
```
2. Present the result (current version, remote version, update availability,
backup pattern) to the user verbatim.
3. Only after the user explicitly confirms, run the approved noninteractive path:
```bash
bash .tad/scripts/tad-update.sh --yes
```
## Rules
- Never run `--yes` without an explicit human confirmation in the conversation.
- Never infer consent from a check result, from silence, or from "the update is
small". If the user declines, do nothing.
- If the helper reports an error, decline, or "confirmation required", report it
as-is; do not bypass the helper or reimplement its behavior.
- If the helper exits with the non-TTY status, tell the user it requires an
explicit `--yes` after they approve, or a terminal with a controlling TTY.
