jira update¶

• Usage: jira update [flags]
• Aliases: up

Update the running binary to the latest release. The install channel is detected from the binary itself: a Homebrew install runs brew upgrade through its tap, a release-archive install is replaced in place (checksum-verified, rollback-safe), while Scoop, mise, and go install binaries are owned by their installer — the command reports the exact update command to run instead of touching them.

--dry-run resolves the channel and latest release and reports whether an update is available without changing anything. A live self-replace requires --force in headless, agent, or --no-input mode; an interactive terminal proceeds without a confirmation prompt — running the command is the consent. A from-source build has no update channel and fails with guidance.

Safety¶

--dry-run¶

Report channel and latest release without updating

--force¶

Confirm replacing the running binary

Output fields¶

With --output json, the response envelope's data object carries these fields. Run jira agent schema for the full machine-readable schema.

Examples¶

jira update
jira update --dry-run # (1)!
jira update --force --output=json # (2)!

1. Report the channel and latest release without changing anything
2. Non-interactive (agent / script) update
