Aigon installs files into every repo it manages — slash commands, agent configs, hooks, vendored docs. When a new Aigon version ships with improvements to those templates, you bring each repo up to the new version with a single command: aigon apply.

This guide covers what to run, when, and where you’ll see a prompt to do it.

Two commands, two jobs

npm handles the CLI upgrade. aigon apply rolls that upgrade out into your repos.

Applying updates

Apply to current repo

aigon apply

Runs in the current directory. If nothing has changed since the last apply, it is a no-op and reports zero changes.

Apply to all registered repos

aigon apply --all

Walks every repo registered in ~/.aigon/config.json (every repo you have ever run aigon apply in) and applies sequentially. Up-to-date repos are reported as skipped (current) and not re-applied.

[1/4] /Users/you/src/repo-a: skipped (current)
[2/4] /Users/you/src/repo-b: applying…
[2/4] /Users/you/src/repo-b: ok
[3/4] /Users/you/src/repo-c: applying…
[3/4] /Users/you/src/repo-c: ok
[4/4] /Users/you/src/repo-d: skipped (current)

📦 apply --all summary: 2 applied, 2 skipped, 0 failed (4 total).

A failure in one repo does not abort the others. Aggregate exit code is non-zero if any repo failed.

Where you’ll see a prompt

Aigon nudges you exactly once, in whichever surface you’re already using. Each prompt names the same fix: run aigon apply.

• Agent sessions (Claude Code, Gemini, Codex, Cursor, Kimi, OpenCode) — a short notice at session start.
• Dashboard — a slim pill in the chrome (top of the page) with a [ Re-apply ] button. See Dashboard.
• Terminal, on demand — run aigon check-version any time.

When a repo is already up to date, every surface is silent.

After an npm upgrade

Right after npm update -g @senlabsai/aigon, npm prints a short summary of which of your registered repos are now behind:

✓ aigon upgraded to v2.65.0
  3 of your 8 known repos were applied with an older aigon:
    /Users/you/src/repo-a  (applied v2.63.0)
    /Users/you/src/repo-b  (applied v2.63.0)
    /Users/you/src/repo-c  (applied v2.64.0)
  Re-apply all:  aigon apply --all

You can re-print it at any time with aigon installed-notice.

Privacy

Repo paths are stored in plain text in ~/.aigon/config.json. Nothing is uploaded, no telemetry is sent. You can edit or remove entries any time, or unregister a repo with aigon server repos remove <path>.
