# Show the template version
The session hook answers `/act-version [--all]` before the model sees it. If you see this anyway, run
`python .act/scripts/update.py --versions --short` (`--all` instead of `--short` for the full list) and show its
(at most three) lines unchanged. When the last line reads
`Update: … available`, offer `act-update`; on `Update: none, …` offer nothing. Do not start it unasked.
