/ flydocs update

Update project configuration and managed artifacts from the server.

Synopsis

terminal 
flydocs update [flags]

Pulls the latest configuration and framework files from the server, replacing managed artifacts with current versions. This is the command to run when FlyDocs releases new skills, hooks, or commands that you want in your project.

Options

Flag Type Default Description
--path string cwd Project directory to update.
--here boolean false Use the current directory.

What It Does

  1. Wipes managed artifacts (skills, hooks, commands) and replaces them with the latest server templates
  2. Merges config by pulling server-side changes while preserving local-only fields
  3. Updates skills to their latest versions based on your workspace configuration
  4. Cleans up deprecated files that are no longer part of the framework
  5. Calls sync internally to ensure config and artifacts are fully aligned

Managed artifacts are files owned by FlyDocs (inside .claude/). Your own code, context files, and knowledge documents are never touched by update.

If you are actively developing inside a managed path, add it to artifactOverrides.skipPaths in .flydocs/config.json to prevent update from overwriting your changes.

Examples

Update the current project:

terminal 
flydocs update --here

Update a specific project directory:

terminal 
flydocs update --path ./my-project
