Update Templates Phaser

Updates the Phaser dependency in every Phaser Editor v5 project template (npm phaser@x and plain-JS jsDelivr + type defs), then increments template.json versions for marketplace zip cache-busting. Use when the user asks to bump Phaser in templates, update starter templates to a new Phaser, run update-phaser.js, or refresh editor-starter-template / editor-example projects after a Phaser release.

Update Phaser in project templates

Run the checked-in script in phaser-editor-v5-starter-templates, not in the Editor monorepo. Never hardcode /Users/arian/.... Never commit .env.

This skill does not upload. After it, use skill upload-templates.

It also does not copy Phaser into the Scene Editor (skill update-scene-editor-phaser).

Do this

Find the templates repo (folder that contains update-phaser.js, build.js, and editor-starter-template-vite/). Typical location: sibling of phaser-editor-v5 ($PHASEREDITOR5_HOME/phaser-editor-v5-starter-templates).
PHASER_PATH must be the parent of a phaser/ clone. If unset, the script uses a sibling phaser/ next to the templates repo. The clone’s package.json version is what gets installed.
Check:

./update-phaser-all.sh --check

Update every template and bump marketplace template.json integers:

./update-phaser-all.sh

--skip-increment if you only wanted the Phaser pin and will bump versions yourself.

Report the Phaser version that was applied. Remind the user:
- skill upload-templates / ./publish-templates.sh to build + CDN
- then phaser-editor-v5/desktop/get-starter-templates.sh (vite / webpack / basic-javascript are not on the CDN)

The build host is usually an Apple Silicon Mac; this skill only needs Node and npm (any Mac is fine).

Invariants

Node templates: npm install phaser@<version> (package.json + phasereditor2d.config.json).
Plain JS (basic-javascript): index.html jsDelivr phaser.min.js + copy types/phaser.d.ts and matter.d.ts.
phaser-site/ (New Project “Phaser” list) is not touched.
Built-ins have no template.json; increment only affects marketplace folders.
Needs types/phaser.d.ts in the Phaser clone (npm run tsgen there if missing).

Never

Run upload-release / s3://phaser/downloads/editor/ for these zips.
Commit build/ or .env.
Invent a Phaser version; read it from $PHASER_PATH/phaser/package.json.
