Use when asked \"is there an HD update\", \"update Hydrogen Desktop\", \"is my HD current\", \"what version of HD am I on\", \"update the app\", \"new HD version\". Trigger words: HD update, update hydrogen desktop, app update, is HD current, HD version, new version of HD, relaunch to update, self-update."------# HD Self-Update — the app updates itself (a banner + an AI path)--This is how the **Hydrogen Desktop app itself** (the Windows/macOS shell around your editor)-stays current. It is NOT how the in-distro tooling/skills update (those converge registry-native-via `adom-wiki pkg update` + the `adom/hook` prompt hook). There are **two ways** a new HD version-gets applied, and they share one backend:--1. **The Restart-to-update banner (what the user sees).** When the updater supervisor-   (`updater.rs`) has silently downloaded + SHA-verified a newer version in the background, HD-   shows a top-of-app bar: **"Restart to update (vX → vY)"** (`UpdateBanner.svelte`). One click-   calls `updater_install` and relaunches onto the new version. If the user ignores it, the staged-   update auto-applies on the next launch anyway.-2. **The AI-first path (you).** You can also proactively notice a new version, tell the user both-   numbers, and on their OK apply it — same backend, no waiting for the banner.--## When to check-Check at the **start of a session** and whenever the user asks about updates. Don't poll-constantly.--## How to check (know both version numbers)-```-GET http://127.0.0.1:<control-port>/updater/status-```-Returns `{ current_version, latest_version, update_available, staged, ... }`:-- `update_available: true` → a newer HD exists.-- `staged: true` → it's already downloaded + SHA-verified in the background, so applying is an-  **instant relaunch** (no wait).-(`current_version` is also derivable from `/buildinfo`; `latest_version` comes from the wiki-`version.json`. `/updater/status` gives you both in one call.)--## What to do-If `update_available`, **tell the user both versions and ASK** — e.g.:-> "Hydrogen Desktop **vX → vY** is available (already downloaded). Want me to update and relaunch?-> Takes a few seconds; this workspace and our chat reconnect right after."--On **explicit consent**:-```-POST http://127.0.0.1:<control-port>/updater/install-```-HD applies the staged update (instant if `staged`, else downloads first) and relaunches onto the-new version. **The Linux workspace + code-server keep running**, so your session reconnects in a-few seconds — you can pick the conversation right back up.--## Rules-- **Consent-first.** Never relaunch HD without the user's OK (it restarts their app). Pick a-  natural break — not mid-task.-- **State both versions** (current → latest) so the user knows what's changing.-- This updates the **app shell only**. Editor extensions/code-server use their own reload banner;-  in-workspace tooling/skills converge registry-native (`adom-wiki pkg update` via `adom/hook`).-  Don't confuse the three.--## Resolving the control port-Read it from `VSCODE_PROXY_URI` / the HD `[ports]` log line (default control API `47084`), or-reach it through the relay/proxy like other HD control endpoints.
