How Automatic Updates Work

Auggie CLI automatically updates itself when running in interactive mode to ensure you always have the latest features and bug fixes.

​
Interactive Mode (TUI)

  • Automatically checks npm for newer versions when you start Auggie
  • Performs upgrades without prompting to minimize interruption
  • Shows a brief notification when an update is applied
  • Best-effort approach - continues running even if update fails

​
Non-interactive Mode (Print/Text Mode)

  • Auto-update is completely disabled
  • Respects version pinning in automation scripts

​
Disabling Automatic Updates

Set the AUGMENT_DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE environment variable to 1 to disable automatic updates. 
# Disable for current session
export AUGMENT_DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE=1

# Disable for single command
AUGMENT_DISABLE_AUTO_UPDATE=1 auggie --print "Your instruction here"

​
