headsup update

Pull the latest headsup from GitHub and apply it in-place. No reinstall needed.

When to use

  • "/headsup-update"
  • "update headsup"
  • "pull the latest headsup"
  • "get the newest headsup version"
  • After someone tells you a headsup fix was shipped and they want it

What to do

Run the update script and let its output speak for itself:

bash ~/.claude/hooks/headsup-update.sh

The script:

  1. git fetches to check for changes
  2. Shows the changelog (commits being pulled)
  3. git pulls and applies in-place
  4. Kills the iTerm2 daemon if iterm2-daemon.py changed — the watchdog respawns it within 30s

If already up to date it says so and exits cleanly. Don't add commentary unless something failed or the user asks.

If the script is missing

setup.sh copies all hook scripts into ~/.claude/hooks/. Re-run it from the headsup repo to restore any missing files:

cd /path/to/headsup
./setup.sh

Where files live

  • ~/.claude/hooks/headsup-update.sh — the update script, copied here by setup.sh
  • Repo: github.com/wasulajr/headsup
