/bryllen-update

Update everything in one shot — npm package, migrations, and Claude Code plugin.

Steps

1. Update the npm package (pulls latest from GitHub + runs migrations):

   npx bryllen update
   

2. Get the new version number — read it from the installed package:

   node -e "console.log(require('./node_modules/bryllen/package.json').version)"
   

3. Commit migration changes — migrations modify consumer files (App.tsx, CLAUDE.md, settings.json, etc.). Commit them so there's a rollback point:

   git add -A && git diff --cached --quiet || git commit -m 'chore: bryllen update migrations'
   

   (The diff --quiet check skips the commit if migrations made no changes.)

4. Update the plugin marketplace repo (git pull updates skills and CLAUDE.md):

   cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/bryllen && git pull origin main 2>/dev/null; cd -
   

5. Tell the user:

   • "Updated to bryllen v{version}" — show the version number from step 2
   • Migration changes committed (can git revert if needed)
   • They must restart this Claude Code session for plugin changes to take effect
   • If the dev server was running, restart it with /bryllen-design

Why no claude plugin update?

claude plugin update cannot run inside a Claude Code session (nested sessions crash). The git pull in step 4 already updates all plugin files on disk — the restart picks them up.
